Pretending
That the baby I just held
Was my Kairi.
He smelled so good
As babies do
All soft and sweet
And I ache so badly
To hold my Kairi
That I can hardly stand
The pain
I wish
So badly
To feel her little body
Snuggled on my chest
The way she was
The last time I held her
Not knowing it would be our last
And I remember
How good she felt
And how precious
Those last moments were
And I guard them
In my memory
Because I was the one
Who held her
Who loved her
As she slipped into
Heaven
And I was the one
Who will hold those
Last fleeting moments
In my heart and mind
Until I meet her there.
