For all the months I carried you, my belly growing with your love
Feeling your kicks and moving gifts from the Father up above
Each day I dreamed of your little face
And when your cries would fill up our space
Our family against thh world
A little boy for daddy, I already have my little girl
I couldn’t wait to touch your hair and kiss your cheeks
towards the end but it still felt like it could be weeks!
The night I was to birth you I just felt different, and new
I could do it and your little life would come through
I pushed through the pain,
because what is a storm with no rain
and though it hurt so much
I couldn’t wait to see your face and feel your touch
My son was born and my heart was so full
Born in our home in a birthing pool
No doctors whisked you away
Right by my side and Daddy’s you would stay
I didn’t know your heart was weak
You were so big Hill, how could I know you wouldn’t awaken from your sleep?
We only got three days with our new son
And in those three days my heart was won
I loved your eyes
such a beautiful surprise
And to kiss those baby cheeks and lips
This is something I can never forget
Mama is not strong
you been gone from my arms far too long
And i don’t know how to live
I had so much love to give
You were Daddy’s little best friend
And Tally couldn’t wait for you to come in
And be a part of our family
Daddy, Tally, Marcus Hillkiah and Me
I miss you so, and how much will you ever know
but one day i will have my baby again
I can’t ever forget you or stop loving you, it will never end
All i have are pictures and clothes and blankets, just memories
And I feel like these are nothing of what could and should be
It hurt me to see your heart stopped beating
Its so hard for me to get up,
Dont want my little sweetheart’s memory fleeting
If there was anything I could do to make you come back I would
In a world so bad, why does He take the good?
But I know the Most High has a purpose and a plan
I just wish I could see you grow up and become a man.
