Say Goodbye

Author: Amanda Davis

 

 

The moment I saw you,

I knew deep in my soul.

That saying good-bye,

Would create in my heart a hole.

Your tiny fingers,

Ten perfect toes.

It was completely a miracle,

Seeing you, my love showed.
 

You were so perfect, so innocent, so pure.

I couldn't believe I made you,

But giving you up,

Was something I wasn't sure I could do.

But seeing them hold you.

The sparkles in their tired eyes.

Brought ease to my heart,

And love to my good-byes.
 

I knew the choice I was making was right, was good.

Giving you to them was something I should.

I left the hospital,

Without you that day.

With me a box of tissues,

As I stumbled away.

As the tears fell upon you,

As I whispered good-bye.
 

I told you I love you and always will.

Dear Baby, you are the first love of my life.

The choices I made for us,

I felt were right.

They will love you and hold you,

Sing you lullabies at night.

Give you more than I could now.

I believe this is right.
 

I will miss you, I will cry.

But everyday I will know,

I gave them the world,

When, to you, I said good-bye.
