Christmas

Michael this Christmas was to be your first
And my heart aches for you.
I have your precious brothers with me
But I am incomplete without you

A time of Miracles, a time for Joy
But I cannot see …
beyond the fact, and the hard cold truth
I will not have my baby boy with me

Everyone expects mummy to be ok
“you need to be for your other children’s sake”
But my heart is so empty, I miss you so much
I wish you were here when I wake

In spirit you are with us
They all say
But I will not hold you , see you
This christmas day .
