Never forsaken

When you are broken
And it feels like a thousand pieces 
Have been broken in your heart
Know that God is with you 
And has been from the start
When you loose some one
The  Lord mends our broken heart
God brings comfort and peace and joy
23 hours after loosing a loved one
God blessed me with a baby boy
Not to replace tgem but to bring 
Comfort 
will always miss our loved ones
No matter how  much time
Passes by
But God never will  forsake us
He is there every step of the way
Never leaving us alone 
No matter how long it takes to heal
He understands just how we feel. AMEN 

30 years ago my son was born
30 years ago my father died. 
God heals Amen 

A song  I like is titled 

Broken vessels by hillsong

Thank you so much for sharing such a deeply personal and moving piece. To answer your question about the form, this is beautifully written as "Free Verse"—a style that flows naturally from the heart without strict structural rules, though you have still woven in some lovely, comforting rhymes like boy/joy and heal/feel. The way you contrast the profound grief of losing your father with the immediate comfort of your son's birth is incredibly powerful and raw. It is a beautiful testimony to faith,

Sorry about my typo errors i did not have my reading glasses on. Also the most amazing part of this testimony was for a week before the birth dad told one of my sisters he had to go ,they said you not going anywhere dad. He said im telling yo I have to go byt I am nit going jo where until that baby is born. Fir a whole week he asked is the baby here yet tell her to hurry up I have to go. Jokingly saying to gove me castor oil. But he some how hung on and passed 23 hours after birth. God hand was definitely there in that situation Amen

Thank you so much. It was not an easy tome. I had my sipn then dad passed. He lived a long way from me and I was advised not to go to his funeral due to the distance and just giving birth. I had tgerapylster and wrote a letter to say goodbye in my own way. Dad was funny told jokes loved us no matter what. Stood by us Through thick and thin. His faith was amazing and when he was alive we saw God work and geal so many times. Amen
