A gentle breath, a fleeting grace,The world stops spinning in this space.My baby girl, my little light,Gone far too soon into the night.I never heard your first real laugh,Nor watched you take a single step.But in my soul, your photograph,Is all the time that we had kept.You were my hope, my morning sun,Before the day had scarce begun.Though arms are empty, tears may fall,You are the truest love of all.The stars above will speak your name,The whispering wind will do the same.A moment held, a lifetime missed,My angel, whom I’ve deeply kissed.Sleep softly now, my little one,Your journey here is just begun.You may not be within my sight,But you will be my guiding light.
