A GRIEVING PARENT IS . . . .

 A grieving parent is someone who'll never

forget their child no matter how painful the memories can be

  A grieving parent is someone who yearns to be with their dead child but cannot conceive leaving their living ones.

  A grieving parent is someone who has only part of a heart as the rest of its buried with their child.

A grieving parent is someone who begs for relief from the memories which plague them & then feels guilty when they get it.

A grieving parent is someone who pretends to be happy & enjoying life when they really are dying inside.

A grieving parent is someone who holds the lives of their remaining children as the most precious gift they have.

A grieving parent is someone who can cry or laugh at the drop of a hat whenever they remember their beloved child.

A grieving parent is someone who feels as if they've lost their child yesterday no matter how much time has passed.

A grieving parent is someone who fears for their remaining family because they cannot bear to have any more loss.

A grieving parent is someone who sits by their child’s gravestone & feels a knife stabbing their heart.

A grieving parent is someone who wants to help others who've lost a child because somehow their loss is theirs all over again.

My Child

 

 

On the day God took you

I thought that I would die

I wondered where the time went?

I asked alot of whys??

With people all around me

I felt alone inside

From all their words of comfort,

I couldn't seem to hide,

I thought I might be dreaming

That I'd wake and find you here,

I thought "This can't be happening."

As I wiped another tear.

On the day that you were laid to rest

My heart broke yet again,

I wondered if the pain would end,

But mostly, I wondered when??

It's hard to be without you,

At times the days seem long,

Sometimes I just sit crying,

When there's really nothing wrong.

I wish we'd had more time,

Before your life was done.

I hope your resting peacefully,

My precious one
