A Stolen Gift

By Chalan •
A gift from heaven above
created from bonds of love
was unknowingly created
just for me.
If I had only known I would
have loved you so tenderly.
I think of what you would
have looked like and who you
might have become.
My little girl or son, it
wouldn't have mattered as long
as you were happy and healthy.
I cry everytime I think of how
I could have held you ever so
gently in my arms.
And made you smile when you were
sad
and give you things that I never
had.
But as quickly as you had come
you were taken away and now there
is only an empty ache left inside.
