Day I Dread
I know my life is moving slowly ahead
But there is a day coming that I dread.
It is the day I came to this earth.
It is the day to of my own birth.
For that was always the day
My children would display
Their handmade gifts of
Their devotion and love.
But my babies are now 5 years gone
And am trying not to be withdrawn.
But as this day draws near
I valiantly fight my tears.
But it is to no avail
As they lead their trail
Down my puffy face
As if they are in a race.
I am really really trying
Hard to keep from crying
As my heart is torn apart
But from me resolve departs.
The tears flow and flow
As my hurt does grow.
No one will remember me
As no one ever does you see.
God please forgive me
Lord please hear my plea.
Take care of my kids please
I am begging on my knees.
Never make this pain abate
As I know this was my fate.
Make sure they are in good care
And this soul wrenching pain I shall bare.
