MISCARRIAGE

Little baby fastened in my womb

Partaker of my life

Though hidden from my view

Changer of my course

Expander of my waist

Enlarger

And developer of my faith.

Oh little one who rented out my room

I never thought our lives would be

Untied so soon.

You left in sudden haste

And emptied out my small domain.

Child of ours,

What is your name?

For though I've longed to carry you once more

You've already been perfected

In the presence of the Lord

So my goal for you is gained

In a place of great delight

And soon in glory

We will

Re-unite.
