I’ve sought to forget Yet always I remember An April day years ago Colder than December When life was lost In shades of red A slideshow playing In my head The searing ache The burning pain Etched in my memory Some how remain The lab technician looking grim A slight shake of the doctor’s head In one fleeting instant All of my dreams – dead The starkness of hospital rooms A nurse’s audacity to smile And say things’d get better It’d just take a little while Deprived of the joy Of perfect fingers and toes Left forever to wonder Only god knows I hate those words “It wasn’t yet a baby” because I know the truth I felt it move inside me A little while long past Five years have come and gone Yet still I feel the pain At the loss of my little one Yet even in the pain A sense of hope still lingers Because I know one day I’ll be counting an angel’s perfect little fingers! |

I could never write such a beautiful piece on a such a great yet sad topic for I am a man. You did a wonderful job. Ronil (One becomes god only when they have fully understood the role of being a human being.) |

StarrGazer: I really liked this one a lot. Your verses seem to flow really well, as well as your rhymes. You've done a good job both with technique and emotion here. I like it a lot.
