Lit by Amy Bendall 15th May 2008
Heaven made an angel, then sent her from above,Just to be my daughter, and fill my world with love,All the joy i ever had was captured in her smile,She filled my life with sunshine, if only for a while.Although I never thought there'd be a time we'd have to part,Heaven took my darling back and left a broken heart.I cant reach out to comfort you or stroke your tiny hand,The precious dreams I held for you cant be fulfilled the way I planned.Sometimes I say a little prayer, in the hope I might,Have one more chance to kiss your head before I say goodnight.So much I would have shared with you, but as we had to part,Theres just empty silence inside my broken heart.I'm missing you a little more each time I hear your name,I've cried so many tears but the sorrows just the sameI miss the things we did together, your smile, your toes, your hair,and nothing fills the emptiness of you no longer there.I have so many memories, to cherish my whole life through,But each ones a cruel reminder of how much I'm missing you.I absolutely completely adore you my sweet, innocent angel. I want to hold you, I cant remember what your laugh was like, I hate this life. Your tree is so gorgeous, and I know you are safe, but Its not good enough. Im your mammy, I should be the one looking after you and keeping you safe. Its not fair. I miss you so much, I want you back with me and daddy. We have nothing without you. I will find you in heaven baby Lilbug. I just want to see you growing up. I dont know how to say goodbye. I cant.Goodnight again and againLove and cwtches Mammy xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
