Arms Are Waiting

Not even born 
Yet already loved 
Arms are waiting 
To hold you 
A crib stands ready 
A rocker waits 
Little clothes are laid out 
Blankets are carefully made 
But they stand empty 
As they will forever
Arms never satisfied 
Crib never used 
An empty rocker 
Little clothes will be packed 
Blankets will hold tears 
Because they cannot hold you
A heart aches 
In a place you already filled 
And you always will 
You will always be 
A part of this life
A heart will ache 
But as it does, it knows 
You are in God’s arms 
Arms ache for you 
And cannot wait to hold you 
But they know 
God will keep you safe 
As you truly grow up 
His child 
Please remember 
Before you were ever born 
You were loved 
And you always be 

This is for two amazing family's I know who miscarried this year.
