My Angel
-Donna Morrison
God placed inside of me a sweet angelic soul
To nurture with my body, for it a place to grow.
I watched with wonder and amazement at the miracle inside,
Waiting for the moment where in my arms you now would hide.
Dreams and plans I wove for a future of you and I,
To begin within a second of my baby's newborn cry.
Dreams crash down around me, nothing seeming fair,
When instead of joyful crying, only silence filled the air.
My sanity now uncertain as reality sets in place,
A beautiful; daughter, this I know, though I never saw a face.
The pain and longing crushes me as these days just pass on by,
Searching for an answer to the obsessive question, "Why?"
I face the future with timid steps for now I walk alone,
God granted me an angel, but had to call her home.
I break through the madness, to try and forge a smile,
At that a rememberance of my very precious child.
Sleep in peace my angel, take good care while we're apart,
Remember my sweet darling, you are always in my heart.
