I’m just a little infant, who didn’t make it home. I’m just a small human, didn’t get a chance to grow

I’m just a small baby, who has floated up to heaven. I’m just a minor youngster, didn’t make it to eleven



My family said farewell, as I slowly drifted above. But they will always pray for me, and send so much love

I may have left earth early, I said goodbye too fast. But all the sorrow and tears should be left back in the past


I’m so very lonely, our days were cut short. At least I can remember the pleasure you brought
