Baby Perkins
Lost 13th May 2010
Sydney, Australia
I saw you not with my eyes
But I recognised you with my soul
And there you will always live
My baby who shall never grow old
I held you not with my arms
And truth is I struggle with you next to my heart
But only because the weight of my grief
Sometimes threatens to tear me apart
I meet you not in this lifetime as I had planned
A sad story but that is how life sometimes goes
I wasn't meant to know you at all
But somehow a parent always knows
I'll never be who I once was
But I'll always remember that you were mine
Time will ease old wounds they say
Perhaps, but scars are left behind
Once a heart knows it never forgets
Loved & Missed Always
