You Don't Want To Know

A Personal Experience Of Loosing A Child

 

 

You Don't Want To Know

 

There are just some things in life you don't want to know.

You don't want to know if your baby doen't have a heart beat any more.

You don't want to know that you'll never see them grow.

You don't want to know that you'll never get to hold them in your arms.

You don't want to know that you'll never hear that little voice call you

"Momma"

You don't want to know that your child is in heaven.

And is dancing with the angels in the sky.

As they smile down at you, and waite for you to join them someday.

That they are being hugged by Jesus everday instead of you...

You just think you could hug them better.

But there are somethings you will have to know.

Even if you don't want too.

 

 

This is dedicated to my three angels who are now living in heaven!

I love you.

"You don't want to know"
5 words I tell my self constantly. A few weeks ago, my old girlfriend sent me an email. It was about us. I chose not to read it, knowing just what it said.

I really felt the connection you had. This really expresses the positive and negative sides of your thinking, which I find very difficult to do in writing. (especially when it is very emotional) Lovely read! Thanks for sharing your work with us!

very emotional...very beautiful...you're right, those are words you'd never want to hear, and my heart breaks for those who have to hear them...

This was absolutely beautiful and tragically sad.
This made me emotional.
Excellent write.

Yes, just as I began the tears came up from inside. Once again very simply written without the extra honey most people may include. Your use of simple words in easy, short lines captures all the pain and loneliness associated.

omg! This gave me goosebumps and made me cry. I want to go wake up my children and hug them

I could relate to the emotion of this poem. Your feelings were expressed very straightforward.
