WHY, BABY GIRL? What happened Baby Girl? Why did you go? The joy we expected, why wasn't it so? This doesn't seem real, how can it be true? How could your Daddy and I have lost you? Wanted so badly, right from the start Loved so much, with all of our hearts I longed to hold you before Daddy and I met Our cuddles, though brief, I will never forget Never in all of my wildest dreams Such a heartbreaking loss could I have foreseen So close to meeting you, yet now you are gone It's hard to imagine that life can go on When you never drew breath, such a tragic waste Of a beautiful soul with a beautiful face Why did this nightmare ever unfold? Baby Girl, you weren't even a second old Heaven was missing an Angel so fine It could only be righted by God taking mine But I miss you sweetheart, why can't you come home? Can't you see we need you? We're no good alone Daddy and I need to hold your hand Need to kiss your cheeks, don't you understand? I cry tears for the fact that you'll never cry That I'll never comfort you with a sweet lullaby I need you to breathe, need your heart to beat I need to hear the patter of your tiny feet But none of these things will ever come true You were gone too soon, I can never have you My dreams have been shattered, gone is my hope The future is bleak, please help me to cope This grief that I carry, I wish it would go But I love you Baby Girl, and I miss you so Written by Lucy, Summer Ruby's Mother. 19th January 2013.
