Why go off with her when you have me?
No, I won't allow it! I won't!
Why're you doing this to me?
I don't understand you.
We were so happy.
Weren't we? Love?
You can't go!
Please stay!
Please!!

The steps to losing a child
Step One: Lose a child. Not what anyone wants to happen and nothing you can do to change it, but you can go through steps to becoming happy again. You can go through steps to loving again. You can go through steps to become a new you because after losing a child you will never be the same person you once were.

Such a great nonet, Rachel. Desperation and love don’t go well together.
What an excellent portrayal of desperation; great work!
Whew! The desperation just gushes from this! Another great nonet, Rachel!
It is a feeling everyone will shock. So, you did a shocking job. Liked it.
This does hurt! Especially the anguish in the opening line. The poem and the pic are a perfect compliment! Great entry, Rachel!
Please excuse me while my tears find the edges of my face 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
ouch...this feels painful to read. Sad and painful. Palpable. Well doe, chum.
