10
-I will wait for the good Lord to make me feel better-
He will keep you safe from harm
He will protect you as you find the light
That would bring you into the promised life
I tell myself this because I believe
I have faith that you will be kept from all evil
Oh little one, you're so pure
Your innocence untainted, untouched; uncorrupted
You're so beautiful,
The Lord wants to keep you
From the troubles, from the horrible things on earth
May you rest in His grace
May you rest safely in His loving arms
We will miss you, we will never forget you
It's been only 10 days,
But 10 beautiful days,
10 meaningful days,
10 days we will never forget for as long as we live,
10 days, but you already mean so much to us,
10 days, shortlived but lived to the fullest.
10 days you fought for your life,
10 days you didn't give up,
10 days and you knew you had to fight
10 days depending on those machines
10 days with tubes in your little body
10 days you had to bear with pain
10 days of medication
10 days you never gave up
for 10 centuries i would remember you
for 10 decades if i lived, i would think of you everyday
for 10 years i will visit you
for 10 months i will cry for you
for 10 days i will pray for you
for 10 hours, i will not sleep, but think of you
Dearest baby cousin, I love you
I'm glad I got to kiss you goodbye
I know I can never see you again
But you will always remain in my memory
You will always be in my thoughts
This I dedicate to you
I just wish you had the chance to read it.
