I'll Have to Wait a Little Longer

Nine months I kept you safe inside me
As you drifted, dreamed and grew.
I couldn't wait until the day
When I'd finally get to meet you.

I never imagined your life would end
before it barely had a chance to begin.
To see you look so beautiful and perfect,
Yet never draw your first breath in.

My heart is truly broken now,
And I'm filled with so much sorrow.
It's difficult to find the strength
To go on and face each tomorrow.

But I'll try to be strong and carry on,
And keep hope alive in my heart.
Someday we'll meet when my life here is over,
And then we'll never have to be apart.
