I'm Still A Mother

This one is about my miscarriage September 23rd, 2012

So small, so fragile
Lentil sized little friend
I was so happy
Until it came to an end
So innocent, just starting
Major developments begin
Your nose and ears
Your mouth even
You were so small
But my loss was great
Hadn't been to the doctor
Hadn't met you yet
We tried for a little
But not very long
You brought so much joy
Never thought it'd go wrong
One week, then two
All smiles the whole time
Our loss so horrid
It should have been a crime
We were so looking forward
To welcoming you
The world would have been blessed
To have someone so new
I was only six weeks
You were thirty six weeks away
Never did I think
Your life would end that day
I was at a party
When that day came
We were with his friends
Watching a football game
I started to hurt
I got stomach pains bad
So we went home
So worried, so sad
Never thought this horror
Would happen to me
But after lots of pain
I started to bleed
We went to the Hospital
Straight to the ER
I knew this could happen
Since I wasn't that far
But we hoped and prayed
That you would make it
Gone first ultrasound
I just couldn't take it
We got there with a baby
And six hours after
We were in the car leaving
Everything there but laughter
You were with us six weeks
And though I never felt you
I'll never forget
And I will always love you
I'm left with no child
No one to care for, watch grow
But I am still a mother
That, for sure, I know

Yes mam, you most certainly are!!! I'm really sorry you had to go through such a horrific
event in your life. I have so much positive information I want blurt out to make you understand
curtain things, but you don't know me and I don't want to step over
boundaries. With that being said, I thank you for sharing and God bless you!!!

Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm actually doing a little better. I'm not with the Father anymore. He broke off the engagement when he said it was my fault. I've moved on.
