A Song for Daniel, Stillborn by Jean Felice Eilbert (his mother)
When I held you in my arms that day Born so still, born anyway How was I to know to say goodbye? No one knew just what to do Except tell me I'd get over you As if forgetting makes it all untrue -- a lie
But I remember to remember I can't forget just to forget Your memories are a part of me Connecting me to what comes next.
And even after all this while I think of you, sometimes I smile Memories of my unknown child, fade slow. I've held you in my heart each day Life so short, life anyway Memories are meant to say hello.
I know, right???? I'd be so mad if I worked all day and then as soon as I clocked out, all hell broke loose! Grrrr...(good thing I don't believe anything will happen, but boo that I still have to work!)
I know, right???? I'd be so mad if I worked all day and then as soon as I clocked out, all hell broke loose! Grrrr...(good thing I don't believe anything will happen, but boo that I still have to work!)
I spent my morning at the bus stop explaining to the kids why the world isn't going to end today. (And I promised each of them $100 if I was wrong. HAHA!)
Making my way through life with an angel on my shoulder and another one by my side. Follow me (and my dog) as I stumble through my new normal after the deaths of my daughter and husband.
