Always Will Be

In a dream you were there.

You sent a message – quite clear.

You wanted to be near.

He was in the room, as well.

I know his time is almost here.

He’s not ready, can’t you tell?

Eleven years of love and joy

You were my second – my world.

Always will be my little girl?

No doubt, he’s missing you too.

He’s always looking for you.

Lying on my lap – I try to soothe.

Thirteen years of love and joy.

He is my first – my world.

Always will be my little boy.
