Cakes shaped like trucks and balloons fill the air
and mothers hold their kids without care
as the sound of laughter surrounds all who are there...
I close my eyes and wish you were here
then I open them and it's just not meant to be.
Tomorrow should be a grand day for all here
instead I'm the one remembering with tears.
We chose the 11th because it follows the tenth
and a birth would be a great way to offset her death!
You didn't make it that far and we had to say goodbye too soon
but that doesn't mean I forgot the cake and balloons.
This day will always be a reminder of what was lost...
our first son who was taken at such a great cost.
So today, as I celebrate what should have been your first
I just want you to know that for you, my soul thirsts.
