The child,

Lost,

Stilled from the world,

Buried in the depths of the earth,

Never to be forgotten.


The mother,

Sits on the ground,

Tears welling in her eyes,

Feeling the space where the child once lay in her arms,

Empty.


The grave,

Cold,

Filled with lost promise,

Holds an infant's body,

Laying in the cradle of the earth.
