Always

I don't remember my first contact with her

I dont remember our first laugh together

But I have heard she cried

She cried when she saw me

Wrapped in a cloth, eyes closed

Pink and warm, I was her life, her baby.

I asked her to promise to be by my side

She whispered; always

But she broke it,

She broke her promise.

I miss her, I cried

I cried when I saw her wrapped in a cloth

Pale and cold,

She was no more with us ' they said

But I found her in my heart.

I wiped my tears, I heard a voice whisper

ALWAYS.
