This pain, so raw
Jagged it cuts like a knife
I want to scream out loud
Why again? How many times in my life?

All I wanted was a chance
To breathe...to breathe that air
Fate wickedly laughed at me
If only I had been there

Walking into that hospital
I felt cold like ice, a cold to my very soul
Months have passed by
I still do not feel whole

I'm an abandoned shipwreck
No treasure though to be found
Here I am floating
Grasping...gasping...I need solid ground

Stop ripping my soul
I have had enough, no way to continue on
No more please
I've done nothing wrong--

Black skies, stormy seas
Stop at once, I command you
Look at my face, just look
See these tears of blue?

My heart aches
For both of my Moms, it makes me so mad
It aches for the one that I lost
Equally as much for the one I never had--


"When life gives you sorrow, may you experience the spirit of laughter"
