42. An Angel's Dad!
- By Daniel Kerr
- Published: March 2013
in Baby Death Poems

I can't begin to express the pain that I am in.
I lost a part of me, and that hurts me deep within.
You said goodbye before we ever got the chance to really say hello.
You were gone in a flash, leaving tears mixed with love and sorrow.

I can't begin to express the pain that I am in.
I lost a part of me, and that hurts me deep within.
You said goodbye before we ever got the chance to really say hello.
You were gone in a flash, leaving tears mixed with love and sorrow.
I don't know if you chose your path or it was chosen for you,
but I'm glad I was on your journey before you got your wings and flew.
You're my angel now watching over us from above,
My inspiration for life and my teacher of the meaning of love.
In 19 days, you taught me more than I even thought I could know.
How could something so small have so much courage to show?
You taught me that I need to stay strong and never give up,
that it doesn't matter if it is half empty or full, just enjoy the cup.
It's funny how someone that was only here for such a little while
can be remembered with every heartbeat, tear, and smile.
The pain I have in my chest does not make me feel sad;
it's just the battle wound I have for being an Angel's Dad!

43. Times Gone By
- By Belinda Stotler

In Memory Of Those We Loved

in In Memory Poems

Graves of those once loved in times gone by,
Quietly lying in rows beneath the Earth's sky;
Such a peaceful place of many deep sorrows,
Where the living walk among solemn rows,

Graves of those once loved in times gone by,
Quietly lying in rows beneath the Earth's sky;
Such a peaceful place of many deep sorrows,
Where the living walk among solemn rows,
Looking for the grave where memories lie,
As they recall the day of the final goodbye.

The dead bring memories of joy and sorrows
For loved ones walking among the silent rows;
Some stand by graves in hushed reflection.
Others speak aloud of heartbreak and affection;
Some visit for just a moment and others for a while,
Then walk away with a tear or memory's fond smile.

Many graves have mementos or lovely flowers,
Some with new sod needing nature's showers,
While others have clearly fallen out of memory,
With only stones showing a brief life's summary,
Until they fade and crumble over the long years,
When no one is left to care or shed grief's tears.

Each grave has a life story once known,
Stories created as life's seeds were sown.
Some stories live on in family histories,
While others wane into unknown mysteries;
All eventually forgotten as time passes by,
When all those memories grow old and die.

Such a peaceful place of many deep sorrows,
Where the living walk among solemn rows,
Looking for the grave where memories lie,
Sadly mourning until their own final goodbye,
When they too will quietly lie beneath the sky,
As their loved ones mourn for times gone by.

The Loss Of A Grandchild

Now we lay you down to sleep.
Our baby boy's soul to keep.
We pray you feel how much you're loved.
So many hearts you've surely touched.

Now we lay you down to sleep.
Our baby boy's soul to keep.
We pray you feel how much you're loved.
So many hearts you've surely touched.

You've had our hearts from day one.
A blessing above to be given a son.
I'd hoped to cradle you and rock you fast asleep,
Holding you so close feeling every single heartbeat.

To hear your first sweet words or watch that first step,
Playing peek-a-boo with you, our hearts would surely melt.
For this is not goodbye; God has promised this to me.
You will always be our baby, and in our hearts you'll always be.

For our sweet baby boy, today you've gained your wings.
As we hand you back to God, we can hear those angels sing.
Heaven will be waiting for you, and until that day you greet us,
Our baby you'll always be; letting go unto the arms of Jesus.

45. Gifts For A Grieving Heart
- By Belinda Stotler
- Published: May 2016
Poem About Gifts Of Loving Memories

in In Memory Poems

Your face frozen in blissful eternal sleep now.
As I kiss you goodbye on your cold brow,
A last tearful glance as you're taken away.
There was nothing anyone could do or say.

Your face frozen in blissful eternal sleep now.
As I kiss you goodbye on your cold brow,
A last tearful glance as you're taken away.
There was nothing anyone could do or say.
My pleas and tears won't bring you back to me.
Comforting friends could not help me to see.
No words could explain to my grieving heart,
Why cruel death had to tear my world apart.

Sometimes I'd find treasured mementos you kept
Or reread the cherished cards from you as I wept;
Fond memories return from photos of smiling faces,
Or suddenly come to mind in the strangest places;
Although I sometimes sadly long for all the yesterdays
And sorely miss our chats and your understanding ways,
Your gifts helped me relive the good times we shared,
And reminded me that you loved me and truly cared.

Even though your death is a most painful memory,
The memories in recesses of my mind's treasury
Have helped save me from grief's dark, lonely decree,
That your death meant only painful sorrow for me;
For the loving bonds remain and will never depart,
Ensuring that you are with me as a part of my heart,
To comfort and sustain me until I see you once more,
When I'm called to come join you on an eternal shore.

I wonder if your spirit lingered a while on that fateful day
And witnessed grief's sorrow as your body was taken away.
Did you see me gently kiss you goodbye on your cold brow,
And hear me ask how I was to continue without you now?
Did you hear the sobs and see the tears flowing from me,
Before you answered calls from across a vast eternal sea?
For I'd want you to know, before your spirit had to depart,
That you had left love's precious gifts for a grieving heart.

Loss Of My Beloved Son

Your very first breath of life, I was there.
Tiny miracle of God, you appeared,
overflowing with joy, my eyes cried a tear,
outstretching my arms to hold you so near.

Your very first breath of life, I was there.
Tiny miracle of God, you appeared,
overflowing with joy, my eyes cried a tear,
outstretching my arms to hold you so near.

You're part of me now, my heart and my soul,
more precious than pearls, diamonds and gold,
sweet baby of mine to love and to hold,
through my many years till I grow very old.

Filled with amazement as I watched you grow,
my child, my son, to the young man I'd know,
never believing one day you would go
to Heaven before me, "Please! Dear God, no!"

More treasured to me than air that I breathe.
No, you were to stay and someday I'd leave.
I don't want to stay here without you to grieve.
No, you were to stay and someday I'd leave!

I've no understanding why or how this can be,
my sweet son's in Heaven so soon before me.
Overflowing with sorrow, my eyes cry a tear,
outstretching my arms, though I can't see you here.

I know in my heart all the love that we share,
on my very last breath of life you'll be there,
with outstretched arms, I know you'll appear,
just waiting in Heaven to hold me so near.

47. Gone But Not Forgotten
- By Timothy Halliday

Loss Due To Stillbirth

in Baby Death Poems

You were a ripple on a glass-like pond,
Just a moment in time; it's hard to respond.

A wave crashing onto an empty beach,

You were a ripple on a glass-like pond,
Just a moment in time; it's hard to respond.

A wave crashing onto an empty beach,
I went to talk, but I've lost all speech.

A whisper in the winter night's air.
How can this be true, how can this be fair?

You were meant to live; this just feels rotten.
You're gone now, but you're not forgotten.

A ray of sunshine through darkened clouds.
The silence is deafening amidst the crowds.

The sound of a bee on a summer's day,
You were here for a moment, but then you went away.

I keep you in my heart like a trap I'm caught in.
You're gone now, but you're not forgotten.

I will love you always, you have to know.
You were so small, no time to grow.

You were here for a moment, and then you were gone.
It's hard to move forward; it's hard to go on.

I remember you still; I wrapped you in cotton.
You're gone now, but you're not forgotten.

I want to shout, and I still want to scream.
I want to wake up out of this terrible dream.

Your beauty took my breath away.
I wish you could still be here; I wish you could stay.

I'm meant to move on; I'm meant to climb,
But how do I move past that brief moment in time?

There's only one thought when I remember you now.
The promise I made, I remember my vow.

I know what I told you; I'd love you forever.
You're gone now, but forget you? Never!!

So remember please my only begotten.
You're gone now, but you're not forgotten...

Poem For Niece Whose Baby Died

Heart full of joy and excitement
To meet you face to face.
Months of waiting and anticipating
To give you my soft embrace.

Heart full of joy and excitement
To meet you face to face.
Months of waiting and anticipating
To give you my soft embrace.

Amazed at God's blessed marvel,
I watched in wonder as you grew.
For nine months you were my daily miracle,
Every move I felt, sparked a love so new.

Now my little one lies here with me,
In a deep slumber she'll forever be.
Pretty eyes I'll never be able to see,
Nor hear her voice be filled with glee.

My heart is in grief; it feels so empty.
The reason you're gone is still a mystery.
You are my beautiful little angel.
Most treasured but not meant to be with me.

Rest now, my beautiful little angel...
You are loved and you will be missed.
Forever in our heart is where you'll stay,
Until we see you again someday.

How do I say this

I wish I got to say my goodbyes

You're happy and at peace
And one day see you again
I miss and love you deeply
And I try not to cry
But I know I'll see you later
So this is not my goodbye

We just hold on to the memories that we made and
All the promises God so graciously gave.
Resting assured when Jesus comes there will be no more sadness,
No more goodbyes, just life together eternally with Jesus by our side.

Your birthday is here again,
but in heaven you will be.
We will celebrate your special day

You are now another year older;
this will never show on your face.
In heaven you are a child forever
as this is your magical place.

We call out your precious name
and send balloons up to the sky.
We watch them fade into the clouds.
The wind has sent them up high.

We hope you have a party up there
with the balloons we sent to you.
Presents to open from the angels
and a cake with some candles too!

We will sing you Happy Birthday,
but we try not to shed a tear
as this should be a happy day
we will celebrate each year.

Sometimes in our lives
we feel a great deal of pain
because we lose someone special.
These feelings we can't explain.

Sometimes in our lives
the lasting of the pain is far too long,
and though we try to fight it,
the feelings are just too strong.

Sometimes in our lives
things can't be controlled,
though we wish they could.
The secrets left untold.

Sometimes in our lives
we see things differently from what they are,
but if we actually saw the truth,
it might leave a nasty scar.

Sometimes in our lives
the truth is better left alone
because in all actuality
the truth is nothing but our foe.

Poem On Grieving Over Loss Of Child

in Son Death Poems

There is no word, no label, no identifying moniker,
I am not a widow, not an orphan, not childless,
But one child less.
One less open laugh and little boy giggle,

There is no word, no label, no identifying moniker,
I am not a widow, not an orphan, not childless,
But one child less.
One less open laugh and little boy giggle,
One less challenging tete-a-tete;
One less artful, winking manipulation,
One less word of comfort, one less grateful hug.
One less chance to embrace a daughter;
One less new life to carry your eyes, your chin, your grin, your name,
No one word for the pain, the longing, the brevity
Of a life meant for living; an old soul meant to grow older than mine;
Would there be any one price too high, any sacrifice too great,
For one more moment, one more breath, one more warm touch;
I grasp desperately and sense the closeness -
the ONE just at the fingertips of my heart and mind,
Only to realize again and again and again,
There is no "One" - you are gone and I am - less.

54. Dear God
- By Jo Huggins
- Published: March 2012
in Baby Death Poems

I know I don't pray to you as often as I should,
But I need you to help me, please, if you would.

Will you please give a message to my little angel Luke?

I know I don't pray to you as often as I should,
But I need you to help me, please, if you would.

Will you please give a message to my little angel Luke?
I know this is a big thing I ask of you,
Oh! Tell him the message is from his Daddy too!

My beautiful son, there's so much I need to say,
Things I didn't get to tell you on that cold, sad day.

Son, your Daddy and I love you.
Even though you are not here,
In our hearts we will always hold you dear.

I know we're not supposed to ask God why,
But I ask God constantly why you had to die.

We don't always feel it,
But God has helped your Dad and me.
There's some things he has brought to our attention,
Some things he wanted us to see

I have always heard things happen for a reason,
That it happens in its own due season.

Something good always comes out of something bad,
So here are some reasons to help me from being so sad.

You were taken from us on that cold December day,
But heaven is your home forever to stay.

We will never get to see you walk,
Or as a little man grow,
But sickness or pain you will never know.

Tears I will never get to wipe from your eyes.
When this makes me sad, I will just look to the sky.

I will always wonder what color your eyes would have been.
Then I think, they never saw sin.

Heaven or Hell, you didn't have to choose.
For that reason you did not lose.

I know you're with Jesus.
For this I can grin.
Because you didn't have a choice,
You couldn't help but win.

Son, I do have some memories of you,
Even though they are few,
But these memories are going to help me make it through.

Like you moving inside me
That I am thankful I got to feel.
It's these memories that are going to help me heal.

Luke, I just wanted to tell you that I love you,
And goodbye I will not say,
Because goodbyes are forever, and I will be with you again someday.
So until then, continue to laugh and play.
Your Daddy and I love you and that's all I need to say.

God, there is one more thing you can give my son
That I did not get to give.
God will you please give this to him?
Tell him it's from Mommy,
That it's my special kiss.

I am a free spirit like a wind
I bend with the breeze, carefree with the bliss.
I wander here and there,
And finally found a love to share.

Together we had laughter and tears,
for he is my sweet disaster.
With one heart we embraced with love,
the little angel sent by one up above.
Yet laid unto rest shortly,
before we even accepted the reality.

On this earth, life and love you gave,
but science had numbered your days.
Up above the joys and fears
You tiptoed and leave.
Mommy is in anguish of losing you, our dearest.

The sun was shiny and fluffy on your final day,
Rainbows and butterflies swept our pain away.
Lonely days and tearful nights were not yet over
yet mom and dad clasp their fingers together.

One day we will see you again, our angel baby.
When our time is over you will walk with us merrily.
Someday we will gaze on you up high
Up above the blue sapphire sky.
We will be proud to tell you with a smile,
that we are stronger because of you...having you even just for a while.

57. I Feel My Heart Breaking

in Grief Poems

I feel your arms
wrapped around me so tight.
I feel your body,
snuggled next to mine

I feel your arms
wrapped around me so tight.
I feel your body,
snuggled next to mine
in the middle of the night.

I feel your breath
on the back of my neck,
I feel your sweet soft lips,
kiss me with a gentle peck.

I feel, NO! Wait,
I cannot feel,
it is all too real.

I awaken in a panic,
look around and
you aren't really there.
But I know it was real,
I felt your hands run through
my hair.

I feel something more now,
I must return
to my dream, somehow.
Please, oh please, still be there,
I am coming back, I swear!
This is the only place
I can hold you,
feel you, touch you.

I can't find you now.
Why did you go?
I asked you to stay,
I was on my way.
I must have taken too long.
Where did I go wrong?

I must now put my dreams aside,
wake up and realize
that you really have died.
I have tried so hard
to hide behind
all the silent tears
I have cried.

I feel you are still here,
I feel your presence
when you are near.
I feel your loving arms,
holding me while
I dream.

A place I feel safe,
without wanting to scream.
I feel your lips gently touch mine,
as you say good-bye.
I feel my heart breaking
once again,
and I start to cry.

As you fade further away
into the light ray,
I can hear you say,
"I love you, and we will
meet again, someday."

I've been sent to touch your lives, and I know you'll think that cruel,

A little angel unknown, I am; my place is as an angel in a secret land.
I didn't have a name as such; you didn't get the chance.
I wasn't meant to live on earth, just touch you by the hand.
I've been sent to touch your lives, and I know you'll think that cruel,
but it's only special people that are chosen as exceptions to the rules.
I knew you would love me from the very start,
from that first sighting and beating of my tiny heart,
so I know that it will hurt you that you have to say goodbye,
but I am your guardian angel now, and I'll dry the tears from your eyes.
I'll be there by your side wherever you go.
I will hear you speak of me often and what I might have been if I'd grown.
I'll be the special angel in the picture that you have.
I'll remind you of my brother and my dad.
I'll have your little features all of you as one,
and I'll love you always as my special mum.
You might not have gotten to see me as a living, breathing thing,
but I'll be the ribbon around your heart and my love will be deep within.
This pleasure I promise will be mine,
to be your guardian angel from now until the end of time.
I'll gift you with my presence every night within your dreams,
walk always as your special unknown angel,
gifted to you within just for a short while,
so think of me often and smile.
For I am your very own special unknown gifted child.

Bereaved Mother And Grandparent Poem

in Son Death Poems

All I know is...I will always miss my son and long for him.
All I know is...one minute I'm together and the next I'm falling apart.
All I know is...my heart hurts all the time, and it has never felt whole since the day he died.
All I know is...the tears won't stop filling up my eyes, soaking my pillows or staining my face.

All I know is...I will always miss my son and long for him.
All I know is...one minute I'm together and the next I'm falling apart.
All I know is...my heart hurts all the time, and it has never felt whole since the day he died.
All I know is...the tears won't stop filling up my eyes, soaking my pillows or staining my face.
All I know is...I really, really miss him.
All I know is...it hurts ALL the time.
All I know is...I want him back.
All I know is...sometimes I want him so badly, that I want to go to him.
All I know is...there is no greater ache in this world than my child dying.
All I know is...I love him, even in death, I love him so much.

60. My Dreams For You
- By Daniel Kerr

in Baby Death Poems

I had so many dreams for you
That will now never come true.
I wanted you to have the life I never had,
Where every day was good and not one day was bad.

I had so many dreams for you
That will now never come true.
I wanted you to have the life I never had,
Where every day was good and not one day was bad.
I wanted you to be happy and have a fun-filled life.
I would have loved to see you be someone's wife.
I would have loved to see you do a little ballet twirl.
I wanted you to be the world's happiest little girl.
I wanted to put you on my shoulders as we watched your favourite band.
I wanted to take you to the beach and watch you play in the sand.
These are all things that I most wanted to do;
All I can do now is dream of doing these things with you.
Now all I want is to see your smile
And to hold you close for a little while.
Your mum and I are in so much pain,
Even though we know it won't be long until we see you again.
For now all I can do is hope and pray
That I'll get to hold you in my arms again one day.
