A poem of thanks to the Angels |
A time of great happiness yet drenched in great sorrow A feeling of dread as we approached tomorrow The life inside of me helped me stay strong When all else around me went terribly wrong A dull aching throb tearing me apart The loss of my mother had shattered my heart The excitement I saw when she saw the scan Of the little life inside me, my little man The talks we had, the plans we made The dreams that she had would eventually fade Tomorrow was the day we had to say goodbye For now was your time to be free and fly The funeral came, you packed out the place I looked to your coffin with a smile on my face For that day I refused to let myself cry If I did that’s admission you did indeed die In my minds eye you are still right here Staying with me remaining near The months soon passed and my son was due That was the time where I really missed you The day he arrived wow what a rush The sound of his cry on my final push Holding him closely pulling him tight I was scared to go to sleep that night I feared he would leave me too I couldn’t face it after losing you I lay in bed watching each breath With an overwhelming fear of death A voice spoke loudly in my ear Go to sleep I will watch him dear In that instant I truly knew That he was safe being watched over by you I knew right then that you were my guide My Mother, my Angel right at my side |
