Heartbeat so strong, <br />Beating fast holding on. <br /> <br />Mothers tears falling down, <br />Slowly allowing time to fade round. <br /> <br />Guilty conscience its ok, <br />No time for sadness, <br />No time for blame. <br /> <br />Doctors that come bringing sadness and hope, <br />Reality sinks in dose by dose. <br /> <br />Gentle hand, beautiful smile. <br />Nothing like the love of ones child. <br /> <br />Anger at all that's happened and still, <br />Cannot change what must be gods will. <br /> <br />Families that circle and bring comfort to all. <br />Will share ones strength when the other must fall. <br /> <br />Stronger men have come and gone. <br />While women have wept and stood strong to carry on. <br /> <br />No matter the distance, <br />Or time and space, <br />Heartache will heal, <br />And the emptyness fade.<br /><br />Rachel Fogle<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-mother-s-sorrow-2/
