Footprints Across Our Heart
|
In saying goodbye to the year 2006, my heart can't help but want to linger in the past just a little. I know that there are many of us who have lost babies long before their time. I know I'm not alone...but this is a club of which none of us ever wanted to be a member. For those who are also lingering in the past a little with me, and saying goodbye to those we'll not meet again this side of heaven....this is for you. Footprints Across Our Heart The door is closed. The lights turned off. The closet stands bare. All the room once waiting... For the child that should be there. Sorrow wells up inside of us. Our tears, an endless flow. All because we miss the child... The child we'll never know. No camping trips, no soccer games, Nor late evening talks. No baseball camps or shopping trips No shaded mountain walks. We have not even memories To help through times like these We only have each other, As we go down on our knees... To plead with You, our Father To take this pain away... to help us know Your love Will guide us through each day. We may never know the reasons For this terrible tragedy; But we can know You love us Through all life's mysteries. Our time was far too brief; It was over before it's start... But our little angel left behind Footprints across our Heart. Author Unknown |
