Distraction
An Acrostic Poem about Distraction for Coping
Dancing inside the shadows,
I am numbing out the pain.
Soon I notice some kind of feeling.
The feeling inside me is pain.
Reaching out for help is uncomfortable
Always as if I need to
Count on other people for help.
They are able to help me
Instead of me helping myself.
Only my best friends and doctors can aid,
Never my own brain helping itself.

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.
