“Angel”

To my tiny unborn soul
Whose life never came to be
It doesn’t mean I love you less
But would your life have made less of me

Oh to be a mother
A blessing to be sure
The circle of life completed
A birth is something so pure

Is that all I am supposed to do
Is that all that’s expected of me
It sounds so selfish
But is that all I really mean

I chose not to give you life
You came to me too soon
I knew I could never give you
The sun , the stars, the moon

If I can’t do it in this life
Should others make that call
Should those who rule the land today
Decide a woman’s life at all

And so my little Angel
I will keep you in my heart
If we meet again someday
May we never be apart
