“did i do the wrong thing?” a mother had to ask
she prayed and prayed that she could take it back
“absolutely not” an infant replied…
“you let me go but i still stand beside”
a life that never got to live,
a loss that had so much to give.
she was a baby that was never meant to grow
the sky was not ready to let her go
back up she flew
too good for this world, it is true
peace she has found
an angel watching down
“i wish that you could have stayed with me”
but her baby shook her head to disagree
“as your mum i have failed and done you wrong”
though her baby knew, her existence was not meant to be long
“i have to now distract myself by playing guitars…”
“because you should have been the only one in my arms”
they hold their hands and pray
that they will meet again someday
the time was now up and the baby had to depart
but forever and ever she lives in her mother’s heart

Day 4 of Quitting
If this is how sobriety feels, maybe it’s better to go through life a little buzzed… this, along with other hits like, I want to kill myself, I wish I was dead, and I’m going to throw myself off a bridge have been the only thoughts on rotation these past few days. I promise myself that if, in a month, I still feel like this (‘this’ meaning despondent, full of rage, and simultaneously numb) I can go back to smoking. Until mid-February though? Nicotine is off the table.
