I really understand. My niece was 36 weeks and she just lost her 1st. He pastaway before anyone could even hold him or even talk to him to tell him we Love him so much. I really do not know how we will get through this. God bless him and all the babies who have the same faith, and to all you mothers out there who have to go though this, it is not fair.

Perfect Even In Death |
| by Lil' Red |

No one remembers, I cannot say why Only thing I keep thinking Is that nobody tried You were mine, only mine No one knew you like me I don't know why He couldn't Just let you be We shared so much In our short time together, And the time that we shared Has made memories forever So much I learned, So much I lost - Everything turned, toppled And tossed Butterfly flutters, then turns And kicks . . . Then, that sad day . . . Was my mind playing tricks? No cry, no movement, not even a Breath . . . As you lay on my tummy - Perfect even in death When I think of you now At the age you would be, A beautiful "big boy" Is the child I see My son you were, My son you'll always be And One - That is us; You and Me |

This poem really touched me. I just lost my first born a little boy. I was 7 months pregnant and hadnt had any problems. It reminds of how I felt that dreadful day of June 1, 2006 when I found out and about June 6, 2006 when I had my little boy. Its been really hard for me to accept his death, but reading about babies being in heaven and remembering the time I did have with him in my tummy really helps. Thank you for your poem.

This poem touched me. When I was 16 I gave birth to a stillborn baby boy. Although I was young it made a huge impact on my life. It also became a subject that my family isn't willing to discuss. It's as though I am the only one who remembers.
Emily
