The child's eyes
Look to the sun
My light stripped
By a single move
Edit, exit, evict
Me from her life
My baby, my blood
My hope, my heart
Revisit the past
Pray for the future
Look to the light
Find the key
Open your eyes
A part of me
You must see
I die within
Without her
On bended knees
My silent pleas
Land in mid air
Nothing there
My Trinity

"You must see

It is the feeling of no one listening, caring, that so often intensifies our pain. I would like to think that this silence, this void, is where our healing begins, where we must look within ourselves for the strength to continue. An empty nest can echo silence in a parents heart.

I agree, very heartfelt tears flowerforyou

Written about my granddaughter...when young kids have children it can be a challenge when the mother does not see the importance of a child knowing the family of the father when they are no longer together.

I know that one personally. I have 2 grandchildren I have never seen. They are now 9 and 7 years old. Their mother felt it unimportant to know me because of my past. Her new father-in-law is in prison.... one place I had never been. frustrated Will they ever learn? ohwell

Heart felt words; and if a childs effort to live is bigger than their little hands, your words express the effort for your grandchild. :heart: flowerforyou :heart: Even two hearts and flowers fall short of what you deserve.flowerforyou

Faith, pk, keep the faith as I know you'll keep the love. You don't hold grudges and you don't irrationally judge(jeepers, I don't think I've ever known you to be judgmental) - she'll (the mom'll) need your strength, quiet wisdom, and gentle guidance. Breathe, sweetpea, brrreeatheeeeee..................
