Still sad. Nine months after my son's death.


Poem Artwork



When you were born and your eyes opened
Mine opened.
When your eyes cried
Mine cried.
When your eyes showed hurt
Mine hurt.
When your eyes were happy
Mine were happy.
When your eyes closed for the last time
Mine closed.
Never to really see the world again.

I don't have any children. But I'm sure losing one the way you lost Davy will stay with you for some time yet to come. I know you didn't cause It, so free yourself from that thought. In time you will be free to see again.

Each line reflects your connection to him, from his birth onward. Well done. It will help you, writing about it.

Ron

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
