If only

My lifeless arms held you tight

Dried tears on your cheeks were mine

I have relived the nightmare a thousand times

Cold fingers tremble as I hold the book of nursery rhymes

If only I could turn back the clock, a hundred and ten chimes 

Killing myself would have been easier than holding the body of a child.
