The Hardest Thing

Losing a baby is the hardest thing
That parents will ever bear.
That sense of loss and longing,
Will always linger there.

They dream of things that might have been,
and happy days they would have shared.
They wish they could turn back the hands of time
To tell their child again how deeply they cared.

Time will eventually dim some of the pain
But they'll never forget that child's face or name.
She'll live on in their memories for sure,
And their love for him will be constant and pure.
