For My Angels
Missing


I look around and listen
Something is missing
I can't see it, love it, touch it
Can't hold it on my knee
My heart is always searching
For that babe I didn't see.

My heart is crying silently
For sounds I never hear
My baby cooing in his crib
Screaming for a feed
My heart is aching constantly
For the babe I really need.

I can't explain my feelings
Or why they're as they are
I miss my baby, oh so much
He wasn't with me long
Fifteen short weeks of pregnancy
That made a love so strong.

A short life that was snatched away
It didn't have a chance
To live, to breath, to cry,
To know its family
Our hopes and aspirations
The things he'll never be.

Of all the conversations
The ones I hate the most
Are where the people always say
You can always have another
I can't replace the one I want
I'll always be his mother.

Each day when I remember
Exactly what I should have
The children I lost but wanted
I know they're in heaven above
And my two children here on earth
Make seven times motherly love.

This Page is dedicated to my five angels, sadly lost through miscarriage.

Robin, 16 weeks gestation, 16th September 1992
Kelly, 5 weeks gestation, 31st December 1997
Sam, 5 weeks gestation, 25/26th October 2002
March, 5 weeks gestation, March 2003
Kris, 15 weeks gestation, 4/5th February 2004

Not with us but in our hearts forever.
Alone

Alone but not alone
Empty but full
I sit here and wonder
Who looks after them all.

I gaze through my window
I dream and I wish
Where are my children?
Why is life like this?

My choices were taken
I didn't have a say
I love all my children
Each and every day!

When life is snatched
It hurts in your heart
When you remember the babies
Who's lives didn't start.

You pick up the pieces
You try to move on
But something is missing
Your baby is gone.

So please everybody
We do need your love
To help come to terms with
Our child up above.

Wonder Why

As I Sit and Wonder Why
I think a lot but never cry
My heart is empty, my eyes are dry
I think a lot but never cry
Looking around, I give a sigh
I think a lot but never cry
Please tell me God, why oh why
Did you let my babies die?
