So that you could be full too.
During the weeks I kept you protected,
Kept you warm and safe from the unexpected.

My son, my daughter, my unborn love,
You are a gift sent to me and daddy from above.
I have learned a love like no other
And that's the love between a child and mother.

Tomorrow you will be with someone new.
His name is GOD and he is expecting you.
To my unborn child who I will never get to meet,
I hope when you're in heaven
You will forgive daddy and me.
I love you and I'm sorry.
