There she is---my future to never be
averting my eyes to avoid the agony
blonde hair, green-grey eyes; age---2 or 3
I steal a glance at this miniature me
she's smiling, for just a second I hear "Mommy"
Eyes getting cloudy; my tears set free
my womanly organs fouled up so cruelly
A babe in my arms---something I'll never see

Today I died.

Today I cried.

I steal a glance at this miniature me

Eyes getting cloudy; my tears set free
my womanly organs fouled up so cruelly
A babe in my arms---something I'll never see

Today I died.

This is heart-wrenchingly sad.
But the longing for something that does not come about to be realized in this world will be fulfilled abundantly elsewhere.
No need to die, no matter how sad it is.
No love is ever lost.
Beautiful poem
one can identify wit the anguish and sadness.
Thanks for sharing it with us
Peace and love
Elizabeth

Good write my friend with so much pain in so few words and I thank you for sharing your hurt with us and getting it off your heart a little and I hope it helps. I could never feel the pain you feel and hope I never do. Take care my friend and keep your head up things always have a brighter side but only if you want to see them....Steve

Scorp, this is an amazing write of human agony. I am sorry it involves you. There are so many ways to be a part of a childs life though if you really want it. Adoption, foster parenting, BB/BS. Donating time at children's centers. Honey, you may never have one of your very own, but you could have many. rita

an expression of something lost lifes many takes on what we always never come to understand why

i think an old word spoken by an old member of the difference.

Very sad but understood.
For a woman this is the worst that could happen.
Dreams often die, but don/'/t let that kill your spirit

God bless you!
