A mama's grief
In my heart broken fog of grief,
I realize that I am not alone
I have family, friends, God, my husband,
and so many prayers to sustain me
but it feels like the air is heavy,
the tasks ahead of me are impossible
and I am alone in the world
BUT, I am not and I will put
one foot in front of the other
and take it an hour at a time
until I can feel like I can live again
My sweet boy is at peace, and I believe
that and will fight anyone who says different
but how does a mama live without her boy?
