My Child ;
Nur Ameerah

I sometimes see your smile in the passing sunshine,
But the clouds take it away.
I watch the butterflies flutter by,
But they never seem to stay.
I hold you in my arms so tight,
Then awake from my dreams.
I see you in the rear-view mirror,
But it is never what it seems.

We'll meet again in Heaven, child,
I'll take you in my embrace.
We'll smile and we'll giggle,
We will laugh and play.
I know you're looking down on me,
As I'm looking up at you.
You might not be beside me,
But you always get me through.

Are you having fun in Heaven?
Is God right by your side?
Does he play dodge-ball with you?
Does He sing you to sleep at night?
Have you friends in Heaven?
Do they play your silly games?
No hatred there in Heaven.
No bullies or pain.

I remember you every day, child,
From your feet up to your hair.
I know your eyes change color,
I know your goofy stare.
I was there when you were born,
And there when you died.
In body or in spirit, child,
I'm always by your side.

I miss my Aqil.
