"BEAUTIFUL"

Love and Life

When I met my true love it was bliss,
I thought my life and fate was perfect;
we had so many great future plans,
it was clear sailing to our true north.

I was pregnant and it was a baby boy,
and life was good- we were preparing;
then,, something felt wrong one morn',
at the hospital I delivered a dead baby.

Our life began to decay our love faded,
my love became distant and too quiet;
he left for work and later came a call
I was told he had crashed his car.

At the funeral I felt like I was stone,
and my life was over- I wanted death;
as days passed I found my strength,
and I found a new path forward alone.
