Barren Baby

Barren Baby

two lines came with

40 weeks of waiting

and you arrived silent.

you left with tiny hands and feet.

but your eyes never

laid with our cries.

See you soon

    Such a short piece but so much pain therein. I’m so sorry to anyone who has ever been through this. Beautifully written. Thank you for sharing.

      I feel exactly the same. It was painful to watch and I can’t imagine how it feels to have it happen. I had to give those babies the opportunity to be heard, even if it was a silent remembrance – a love never felt and life never lived.

      Thank you for your visit.
