POEMS

The Loss Of A Child

© 2002 Tammy S.

This Poem is dedicated to my daughter Rachael who was killed by a drunk driver July 30,1998 March 31st 1982- July 30th 1998

Emptiness fills my soul,
no longer do I want to go on,
Tears fall down my face
Memories flood my heart,

Lord, I cry out the pain is strangling me, hold me Lord.
Ever so gently I feel a touch upon my shoulder.
I reached through the darkness to find my Lord.

"I never left you my child".
"When you laid in bed and cried",
"I cried with you and wiped your tears",
"When you felt you could no longer pray I prayed for you".

"My precious child I am here, listen to my voice".
Lord, I hear you as I sit here calling me back to the light.

The darkness is so consuming, Lord.
Emptiness fills my very soul,
Hold me my Lord, in your arms of love.

I thought you left me Lord?
Where did you go?
"My precious child I have been carrying you in your pain",
"I have wiped your tears and brought you comfort".

"When you have cried out I have been there with you".
"I will never leave you my child".
"Please don't ever leave me my child for it would break my heart".

Lord It seems too soon to call a child home?
"My dear precious one please know that
I would never do nothing to break your heart
your child is home right here with me"

"No longer do you need to feel abandoned or alone
I have always been with you and will never leave you".
"Please my precious one remember I will always carry you".

"And when you feel you no longer can go on,
call me, I am just a prayer away"
"With love, your Heavenly Father"
