This poem was written for my fiance when we were first together.Just a couple of months earlier, I had lost my three year old son,  who was killed in a wreck when his dad was drinking and driving.


You are the one who dried my tears
And because of you I overcame my fears
You brought back laughter and restored my joy
I was such a mess when I lost my little boy
But you came along as if by fate
Put love in my soul where there was hate
You taught me once again how to smile
And I knew I'd be okay again after a while.

Soozieque_28~ I can't even begin to say how this ripped at my heart........to say I'm sorry about your son, seems so small, and just not enough.....this is a beautiful poem, thank you for sharing this with us.   -SEA
