I need a Refuge

Contributed by Valerie_Pearson on Tuesday, 8th June 2004 @ 09:38:44 PM in AEST
Topic: Grief



I asked for a rainbow , a simple sign of love,
here I am, fallen again,
I guess I'm just driftwood,
floating in time,
reaching for heaven,
Why am I here, only to fall,
I live for my children,
but yet God, you call,
My soul is empty,
I try so hard to fight this pain,
living in an empty house,
only memories remain,
My rooms are naked, no sign of life,
my eyes hurt, my head aches, my bones weak,
I tremble, I cannot breath anymore,
this pain is so severe,
Where am I, must you ask,
I died with the children,
the ones I once held,
I am drowning,
a single raindrop left ten thousand more tears,
I don't know if tomorrow will bring the sun,
Heaven ...... help this lone soul of mine,
Please ...... Oh how I beg,
my heart cannot bear this much pain,
another child gone,
I am lost and I need a refuge !

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sorry if this doesn't sound like a poem, mainly these are my current thoughts"

OMG! Val..I am so sorry.... My thoughts are prayers are with you in this most painful time..
Please stay strong....

"He is not dead, he is just away...
He's gone to Heaven where he will stay..
Resting with Jesus in peace and joy...
Nothing in that fair land will annoy...""

Hugs....
Jenni

Oh Valerie, another child - life is so incredibly unfair ... my heart weeps for you as I don't truly know how I would cope either if I lost a child - all my woes just shrivel up compared to your pain right now ... please know I'm thinking of you always ... love and God bless, Jan

Valerie,
I feel your pain. I lost my baby girl to SIDS on June 3rd. I am so unsure of where I am to go from here. I hurt so bad that I can't even cry. She was only 7 weeks and we had so little time.
Maybe we could talk because I need someone now as bad as you do. I am here.....
I am terribly sorry for your loss.
God bless you.
Juliette

Here is a grief I cannot even come close to understanding. My heart goes out to you. But do not give up hope! I believe there is light beyond this life.
Take care, and may a few good blessings come your way soon.

Valerie, I am so very sorry for the loss of your beloved son. I just lost someone very dear to me so I know the grief you are feeling. I have never lost a child but I do know the devastation of the loss of a child. My heart is with you but I know that is of little consolation at this time to you. God bless and keep you.

Rita
