Today is the Day

 

Today is the Day

 

I hang my head and pray

For today is the day.

And not in a happy way.

 

I let the tears slide

And decide not to hide.

For today is the day

You left my life.

 

My heart breaks

At the thought of you.

I think of you everyday

Wishing you were here to play

 

I hang my head and pray

That you are ok.

For today is the day

And not in a good way.

 

I let the tears slide

And decide not to hide.

For today is the day

That you died.

 

My heart breaks

For you my unborn child

My heart breaks

You did not survive.

 

So I hang my head and pray

For today is the day.

Any person who is half way human will be
moved to tears by this poem.
It is about the loss of a child which is probably
the most horrible thing that could happen to a girl,
but it is more
This poem is a lesson in good writing, it holds out
hope for the future, it is well constructed and
it appeals to the world at large.
Thank you,
