Baby Rieley Tribute

I’ll never replace you
I’ll never say goodbye
And a tear falls for you
Every time I cry
I’ll always be your mother
Though you decided not to stay
I never got to know you
I didn’t even know your name

I’ll hear you laughing and clapping
Little gurgles that you make
Feel drowsy in your warmth
And never want to wake
Nothing fills the void I’m hiding
But you’ll never be to blame
You lived a tiny life inside me
I didn’t even know your name

And they don’t realise
I’d seen your first steps
Your finger wrapped around daddy’s hand
Hoping you’d turn to us for everything
And that we’d understand

I’ll never replace you
I’ll never say goodbye
And a tear falls for you
Every time I cry
I’ll always be your mother
Though you decided not to stay
I never got to know you
I didn't even know your name
