Dream

Last night a sad dream I had,
This one, for me was quite bad.

I was at work and my baby I did see,
He knew right away it was me.

He broke away from this person other.
The new one he was to call mother.

Into my arms, my child flew,
There was no other joy to compare to!

My youngest son, my baby boy,
Oh the feeling of utter joy!

He says" I want to come home Mommy".
Oh Lord the pain hits like me a tsunami!

I awoke with a start!
Breaking was my heart...

Tears streaming upon my face,
The pain just won't erase.

For me the pain is with me every day.
It will never ever end I dare say!

I wish I could say it gets easier, I know we all miss them but none as much as you. Where's that friggin' magic wand? I SERIOUSLY need it for you, if I had one wish I'd wish for you to have your kids back. Anyone have a genie lamp? Love you honey bun....Leerie

This is so sad, Kristy. Deeply touching. Pain hitting "like a tsunami" washes away our spirits. Beautiful poem.
