In the depths of my sorrow, I carry a weight
A burden so heavy, it's hard to relate
For I have lost five little ones, before they even arrived
Leaving me with a pain that never subsides

Each one a precious life, so full of promise and hope
But fate had other plans, and they were forced to elope
Leaving me with nothing but memories and tears
And a longing for the children I'll never get to rear

Oh, how hard it is to lose five babies before they're born
To never hear their laughter or see them at dawn
To miss out on the milestones and the joys of parenting them
Leaves me with a sense of loss that can never be understood

I try to find solace in knowing they're in a better place alongside mom
But the ache in my heart refuses to erase
For every time I see a child or hear a baby's cry
I'm reminded of what I've lost, and I can't help but sigh

So I'll carry on, with a heavy heart and a soul full of grief
Knowing that my babies are somewhere beyond the reach
But the love I have for them will never fade away
For they'll always be a part of me, until my dying day.
