I
became pregnant by rape and miscarried my child – a loss which many don’t
understand. I have been writing a lot
lately and it really helps to get things out. I want to share this poem I wrote
with you, from my son’s perspective.
(This
poem is for you Michael Jude. You will always be my son, my child. I am thankful God gave me you. – Love, your
Mom)
By
your side
I
am here,
present
with you in this moment.
as
blood streams down your forehead,
as
tears emerge from your hazel eyes,
I
am by your side.
I
am here,
present
with you in this moment,
as
the devil engulfs his soul
and
strips you of your innocence
I
am by your side.
I am
here,
present
with you in this moment,
as
God shows me the truth,
the
truth of what happened on that horrid day,
I
am by your side.
I
am here,
present
with you in this moment,
when
the devil told you,
you
were worthless and that you didn't deserve God's love
I
am by your side.
I
am here,
present
with you in this moment,
as
the doctor tells you
you're
pregnant,
pregnant
with the devil's child,
I
am by your side.
I
am here,
present
with you in this moment,
when
you choose life,
life
for your child,
God's
child,
I
am by your side.
I
am here,
present
with you in this moment,
as
you struggle to understand
what
happened
I
am by your side.
I
am here,
present
with you in this moment,
as
you love your child
with
your whole heart
I
am by your side.
I
am here,
present
with you in this moment,
when
you lost your baby,
the
light of your life, your beauty from pain,
the
love of your life who brought you healing,
I
am by your side.
I
am here mom,
present
with you in this moment,
as
your guardian angel, as God's gift to you,
as
your guiding star,
I
am by your side.
I
am here mom,
present
with you in this moment,
to
tell you I love you,
to
tell you I will never leave,
to
remind you,
I
am by your side,
Now
& forever
