When I’m feeling sad and blue
I close my eyes and think of you
A gentle hand, a softened touch.
A crinkled grin from smiling so much
I’ll never know and never knew
How much I really mean to you
For you were taken far too soon
Swept away into the murky blue
I think of stories that you’d tell
Legends of waves and swell
Sea monsters and pirate ships
Another world was woven from your lips
I still recall the lingering scent
The briny smell of salt and Ghent
Another time another place
I would trade the stars to see your face
I miss so many things you did so well
To hear your voice again I would never tell,
My heart would forever be quelled.

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.
