Ok so on with my post. I promised you all I would post the poem I wrote for the 2 year anniversary of our baby Gabriel's birth/death. Here is the poem...
Two years today I said goodbye
With not knowing the reasons why
My tears fall and my heart still breaks
My soul was torn and it still aches
How could time have slipped away
When in my arms I wanted you to stay
My life without you will never be the same
Since the tears fell and the heartache came
My tiny little angel. Perfect as can be
As it was the last time your face I would see
I wanted to freeze time and not let you go
For all the sadness that I would know
Oh how many nights I laid and prayed
For my sweet little baby the Lord to save
Am I being punished for something I done
When all I wanted was you my son.
It’s not fair, It’s not right
For me to never tuck you in at night.
Your Daddy and I love you so
So much that you could never know
Two years ago today I said goodbye
That’s 730 days for me to cry.
