Sleeping peacefully
there you are.
Almost perfect
your face from afar.
there you are.
Almost perfect
your face from afar.
A hushed, soft bundle
so tiny, so innocent.
Precious little one
danger so imminent.
so tiny, so innocent.
Precious little one
danger so imminent.
You capture so many hearts
your dainty hands and toes.
Priceless beauty
a touching moment froze.
your dainty hands and toes.
Priceless beauty
a touching moment froze.
From cradle, to mobile.
Life's first cry to a
heart wrenching goodbye.
Life's first cry to a
heart wrenching goodbye.
Delicate and calm
They rip you from the womb.
Where you were knit....
now unable to bloom.
They rip you from the womb.
Where you were knit....
now unable to bloom.
They crush you
They shame you
No desire to claim you
They shame you
No desire to claim you
Your inconvenient.
Your considered disgrace
Your a selfish throwaway
Your a memory they can't face
Your considered disgrace
Your a selfish throwaway
Your a memory they can't face
How can they take such a trusting soul?
When will they see this special one whole?
When will they see this special one whole?
