Remembering

We said good-bye to the new life we thought would be our 3rd baby one year ago today.  This past year has definitely been filled with a roller coaster ride of emotions.  The sharp pain of that loss is gone now, replaced by a dull ache.  There is not a single day that goes by that I don't think about him/her.  I don't dwell on it, but I certainly do remember.  And wonder.  And wish.  But I can't change what isn't.  So I love what is.

You never said you're leaving,
you never said goodbye.
You were gone before I knew it,
and only God knows why.

A million times I've missed you,
a million times I've cried.
If love alone could have saved you,
you never would have died.

To some you are forgotten,
to others just part of the past.
But to me who loved and lost you,
your love will always last.
