Eternal Promise Poem Verses

Though we never met, your love we knew,
A child so dear, a promise that grew,
In the depths of our hearts, an unspoken love,
A soul so pure, a gift from above.

We'll never forget, the love we share,
For the child that was, a love so rare,
An eternal promise, a bond so deep,
In our hearts, your memory we'll keep.

A child that could have been, a love so divine,
A great person they were, in our hearts enshrined,
An unspoken love, a dream that's true,
Forever, dear child, we'll remember you.
