Taken
away before I got to know you
Even though our time was short
know this I did love you
No more time to play
or hold you in my arms
Even though I am not here
I am not very far
I am in your dreams and there
to kiss you before you fall asleep
One day it will be
your turn
and then we will meet
I just hope that they love you
as much as I did but a little more
Take you to places that you
never been before and teach you
to love all and hate none
If they can do this for me then
I will know my work here is done
I gave it my all to stay...
But the Lord told me
that it had to be this way
So don't cry my child
I miss you too and
I will always be with you
even if my life here is through

I wrote this in
memory of all children who lose their parents before they get
a chance to really know them. My cousin died after only knowing
his son for a month.
