Ba Bum Ba Bum

Hey little angel that we never knew,

this poem is for you,

and for a tiny heart,

that never escaped the dark,

forever you ll stay in your mamma s heart.



Only I and your mammy knew ,

two became three and  inside you grew ,

I listened to that faint heartbeat Ba Bum Ba Bum,

Imagined tiny tapping feet.



You were never held, though always loved ,

the world didn t know you were ever here,

now our world is broken, because you’re gone,

never did you say a word, draw a breath, or take a step ,

yet things will never be the same



No Funeral But in a church we light a candle,

a weak flame ignites, sparks a little light,

though a cold draft blows and the candle goes out,

So dark No light we're blinded by a broken heart.
