Jaylee's Song

I never knew love
Until there was you.
I never knew hope
Until I felt you move.
I never knew happiness
Until I heard your heartbeat.
And I never knew weariness
Until I went to sleep.

I never knew sadness
Until they said you were gone.
I never knew fear
Until I knew something was wrong.
I never knew anger
Until you were born and didn't cry.
And I never knew sadness
Until the tears flowed from my eyes.

But I had never known the joy
Of meeting my child before.
I had never known the true wonder
Of seeing in someone both of us and more.
I had never know the happiness
That you gave to me that day.
And I have never know the emptiness
That my arms felt when they took you away.

I had never known what it is to lose
Something I wanted so bad.
And I never knew what it was hurt
To feel so dead and sad.
I had never known what it is to be a Mommy
Until they gave you to me.
And I miss you so much my darling angel,
My little girl, Jaylee
