Empty heart
rising sorrow
darkness
where you once grew
You were every hope
every wish
every prayer
You were all we ever wanted
You were a dream
a fleeting moment of bliss
a glimmer of life…
You found your way
only so far
You came into our lives
and brought us joy
you gave us hope
brightening, enlightening
You showed us a vision
our creation
of love
of purpose
You showed us what matters
more than anything
more than everything
But I will never feel your heart
or hear your cry
I will never have the chance
to tell you again
how loved you are
how cherished
how treasured
Now I am drifting
through a vast sea
longing for meaning
seeking hope
yearning for grace and light
through darkness…
Mourning a life never lived
a song unsung
a child never known
Oh, to see what this dream
could have been…
This Beautiful Vision ~
a sublime glimpse
of you, of us
of splendor and joy
Then to wake
and surrender to another day
without you
The vision now faded from our midst
just an aching memory
a dream lost ~ taken
Yet beyond despair
is your gift
how precious a life
how sacred a bond
Though part of me was lost with you
you are always with me ~
You are part of my soul, my spirit
you inspire a dream anew
So from this hope may spring renewal
for new life to begin again…
You will live deep in our hearts forever, never to be forgotten…
with all the love we never got to give you
may you find your way back to us one day…
You sure have a way with words, don’t you? Beautiful.
I’m so incredibly sorry for your loss. Thinking of you (and your baby boy).
How beautiful, Luna. I’m sending out big HUGS your way today and tomorrow (and the next day and the day after that … you get the point).
I’m so sorry you didn’t get to see your baby boy grow up. So very sorry.
Thinking of you both today xx
*sniffle* Thinking of you & your baby boy.
Your words have touched my heart- your sweet boy was with you longer, but the hopes and dreams were still the same- I am thinking of you, your husband and your precious angel this week. The words that you have written will be with me as I remember my sweet angels anniversary next week. It brings me comfort to know that my angels and yours are playing together watching over us until that day when we are able find our way back to one another. Keeping you in my thoughts and sending you love and peace.
