For my Angels

How Many Pieces

How many loving pieces,

Can one heart give away?

Until it’s too small and broken,

To beat day after day.

You see I have two Angels,

Each hold a piece of my heart,

I gave it to them willingly,

Right from the very start.

When my first Angel took a piece,

I gave it with no fear,

Certain I would get it back,

With his birth later that same year.

But my precious little angel,

Silently slipped away,

So I pledged he could hold my heart,

Forever and a day.

With my second little angel,

I knew the danger of raw pain,

That if I gave a piece away,

I may never see it again.

That didn’t stop me giving,

And giving with such love,

But now my angel hugs my heart,

As she looks down from above.

So as I sit here crying,

With an empty womb and empty arms,

And a heart too bruised and shattered,

To protect me from more harm.

I don’t regret the love I gave,

Or that my angels have my heart,

They earned it as they grew in my,

And they really left their mark.

The question that I ask myself,

And will ask it everyday,

Is do I have enough heart left

For when more angels come to stay?

Night night and sweet dreams.
