"You discarded me --
like the first draft
of your high school
valedictorian speech.
Podium high,
you sighed--
while I kept
in the shadows.
You gave me one glance:
and just like that--
I collapsed."

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.
