Hi guys was having a bit of a moment earlier on (i know i should be happy because its my birthday) because of (actually doesnt matter cant put it down now).
Anyway i came across this poem and it has had me in tears :cry: and i really wanted to share it all with you

What Makes a Mother?

I thought of you and closed my eyes
And prayed to God today
I asked "What makes a Mother?"
And I know I heard him say.

"A Mother has a baby"
This we know is true
"But God can you be a Mother,
when your baby is not with you?"

"Yes, you can," He replied
with confidence in his voice
"I give many women babies,
when they leave is not their choice.

Some I send for a lifetime,
and others for the day.
And some I send to feel your womb,
but there's no need to stay."

"I just don't understand this God
I want my baby to be here."
He took a deep breath and cleared his throat,
and then I saw the tear.

"I wish I could show you
what your child is doing today.
If you could see your child's smile,
with all the other children and say…

"We go to Earth to learn our lessons,
of love and life and fear.
My Mommy loved me oh so much,
I got to come straight here.

I feel so lucky to have a Mom,
who had so much love for me.
I learned my lessons very quickly,
My Mommy set me free.

I miss my Mommy oh so much,
but I visit her every day.
When she goes to sleep,
on her pillow's were I lay

I stroke her hair and kiss her cheek
and whisper in her ear.
‘Mommy don't be sad today,
I'm your baby and I'm here.'"

"So you see my dear sweet ones,
your children are okay.
Your babies are born here in My home,
and this is where they'll stay.

They'll wait for you with Me,
until your lesson's through.
and on the day that you come home
they'll be at the gate for you.

So now you see what makes a Mother,
it's the feeling in your heart.
It's the love you had so much of
right from the very start

Though some on Earth may not realise,
you are a Mother
until their time is done.
they'll be up here with Me one day
and know that you are the best one!"

Hi Tracey,

This poem helped me alot when i miscarried in July.

Although i must admit it took me about 10 attampts to read it through without crying all over it.

It will get easier. I promise.

hi imarszall,

Thanks for you message i know what you mean i havent been able to read it properly without crying yet but im making myself read it everyday to build up strength. x x
 
How long has it been for you?

I had a very hard time coping and even had to get sleeping tablet from my doctor.

Then one day it just got easier. I think about it everyday but i can now move on and deal with it.

It takes time to grieve though.

:hug:

Hi Tracey,

It will get easier, it will still hurt and you will never forget but you will learn to move on.

Well i did eventually. At first i couldn't see how i could ever smile again.

But now i am getting there.
