My heart aches
As I lay my fingertips on my belly
The loss of the life
That was developing in my womb
Breaks my soul
I feel empty and mournful
I know that my life is already planned out for me
And these things happen for a specific reason
I just wish I knew why
Knew if there was something I could have done
To prevent this tragedy
The pain will lessen
And if I am meant to mother another child
It will happen in my lifetime
I just didn’t expect to feel so blessed
By being given another miracle
Then having that dream ripped from my hands
Before I was even able to touch the skin
My heart will slowly heal
But I will never let myself forget
I do have to let the pain fade
