Tiny Fighter

You were so small not even a day old,
yet you were doomed,
Issues appeared by the minute,
but Nobody knew,
your frail body too tiny to help,
was giving out,

Your siblings wiggled around you,
snuggling closer to the warm body of your mother,
You were wiser and knew you wouldn't make it,
you tried for your Brothers,
you gave for Sisters,

But those around you could only watch,
Your mother watched as you took your final breathes,
You were a giver, you didn't try to eat,
You laid silently at your mothers feet,

Unnamed and not yet loved by any but your siblings and your mother,
That is what you believed, but I was there watching in sorrow as you struggled,
I watched and pleaded for you to get stronger, for you to somehow make it through,
But my pleas fell on deaf ears as you slowly passed at 2,

My heart aches for you, My tiny fighter.
One day we will meet again,
You will be strong and you will see the world with so many views.
