A MOTHERS SORROW

There's a sadness in my heart,
That wasn't there before,
There's an emptiness that nothing can ever fill.

For my perfect little boy
Was taken far too soon,
And I am left with shattered dreams - unfulfilled.

You were so loved and wanted,
A child to complete our souls,
A babe to make our family pure and whole.

But all too soon you were taken,
We could only say goodbye,
No hellos or warm welcomes to great your soul.

Never will we see you
Take your first tiny steps
Or grow into the man you would become.

There's an emptiness, a sadness,
For the things that should have been,
And I am left alone in sorrow - overcome.

You will never know your brother,
Climb a tree or hug your dad,
A mothers warm embrace you'll never know.

For there's a family that loves you,
And so wanted you to stay,
But the angels now in heaven hold you so.

Even though you were with us,
For the shortest of all time,
Of this family you will always be a part.

But the emptiness and sadness,
Only you could ever fill,
Is now etched forever in my heart.
