Be Brave Princess
Hello my gorgeous baby
My beautiful wonderful Angel.
I love you with all of my heart
and I'm sorry if this message is painful.
there are some things I would like to say,
things I would say if we were together,
things that parents say to their babies
that stay in their hearts forever.
Unfortunately you don't really know me
you've seen pictures of me where I've been,
see I was taken to heaven when you were a baby
from events that were unforeseen.
I am so so sorry that I
must say this final goodbye
but I'm certain I know the reason,
I'm certain I know the why.
I always played silly games,
mummy said I belong in the circus
but we each have a reason to be here
and I believe that you were my purpose.
I want you to know I lived a wonderful life
in the time I've spent here on earth
but the greatest thing I ever did
was witness the day of your birth.
I held you so close in my arms,
my tummy filled with butterflies.
I could not help but cry tears of joy
as you gazed deep into my eyes.
Its cruel that I can't be with you.
It's not fair that I had to go.
If I could ask the heavens for anything,
I would ask to see you grow.
Try not to be scared of the dark,
be brave, I know you will try to.
If you get frightened just close your eyes,
I will be sat there right beside you.
It breaks my heart to know
that I will never see
your little eyes light up at Christmas
when you open a present from me.
There are so many days of the year
where you will have so much fun.
There's Easter, Halloween, Fire work night,
there are so many things to be done.
On your journey to becoming adult
boys will come and go
but when you discover true love,
I'm certain that you will know.
I wish I could be there with you,
to walk you down the isle.
To wipe away my tears of joy
at the sight of your beautiful smile.
Your life will be long and happy
and be forever surrounded by love.
I will always be smiling down at you
from up in the heavens above.
Do not rush to come and see me.
There is no early or is no late.
It doesn't matter how long it takes.
In heaven I will wait.
In many years from now
I'm certain I'll see you again.
Its not a question of why or where,
It's just a question of when.
I love you so much my Princess
Is all I have left to say
I will always love you for ever and ever
I love you more and more each day.
