A poem about loosing Millie Moo

It's ok to be angry , it's ok to be sad 
you don't have to be perfect 
its ok to go a little Mad

you've had such a loss 
still so so Raw 
never got to see her little face 
the emptiness the void 
nothing in here feels clear now
What future 
the mind get meaner 
my world seems smaller
In feeling
in denial
in confusion , the mind runs miles

So powerless but don't wanna be 
mind so controlling , avoiding reality 
can't help myself 
the grief keeps calling me
The pain hurts 
got to make a plan 
a thousand plans come running 
but I really am doing all I can

I could see her 
I felt her too, her little name was Millie 
she was a butterfly 
she flew away too too soon 
her Mummy is angry her Daddy is sad 
we don't know what to do now 
but we do know Millie would have made us so proud

Feeling lost now 
feeling the hurt and pain 
can't see out of this foggy window 
in this little glass house 
on the inside looking out 
Can you all see me..

there is no ending 
because there was no beginning 
but what can we do 
it's just one step in front now 
two steps back 
Praying every day and trying to hold my face up

it's sad but life has to carry on 
and in time the angels and we will heal us and we will be strong
got to try and trust 
that all will be fine 
keep a sense of hope 
and connect with sunshine 

the world is made with a thousand colours 
merging together too 
this is just another painting to hang up on my souls wall 
just another fragment of lifes story
many others will be here too

Wow. This is such a beautiful, touching poem. It made my throat tense up and feel the feelings of raw emotion that you portray so well here.
"It's ok to be angry, it's ok to be sad...." and the way you portray the emotions here too. The pain and anguish. You take the reader on the ride so well....

And then the "....sense of hope" and the sunshine that always follows rain and darkness. The last stanza is so beautiful it almost made me cry with joy.....:)
Great write.
