Let Go
The child is asleep
Her skin is ice cold
The girl lies in a heap
Her mother keeps hold.
The child is asleep
Not a sound is made
Her mother lets out a weep
Her hope will not fade.
The child is asleep
Her eyes stay closed
Her sister takes a peep
Her mother is not composed.
The child is asleep
Her breathing can't be heard
The machine goes bleep-bleep
Her mother's vision is blurred.
The child is asleep
Though it was just yesterday
She came into this world.
Her mother will weep
Her mood and mind grey
She will stay in this world.
She will have to let go.
