I lay awake in bed at night with tears running down my cheek,
Thinking of my precious child as the world is fast asleep.
Remembering him is easy, I do that every day,
But missing him is a heartache that never goes away.
Forever in my loving heart, memories of him remain,
Life goes on without him, though it never is the same.
If I seem a little distant or confused through a cloudy mind,
I’m having a moment with my child, please understand, be kind.
Never think I’m crazy when I’m having an emotional day,
For grief can come and go – it’s a mystery that way.
Sometimes I don’t want to talk, sometimes I want to share,
Please just be patient, hold my hand, so I know you care.
