The new me
Let's end the year with a couple of poems.
The day she died
and I was born
was the day I realized
I deserved better.
*************************
You think you've got a hold on me.
Now trust, see, and believe
I'm breaking free
from the chains you put on me.

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.
