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
