...not one more lullaby

Beside a bed upon her knees
She looks for pains reprieve
A picture clutched close to her heart
Tears flowing down her cheeks

Her shoulders wracked with aching sobs
A tremble in her hands
A broken heart inside her beats
Her legs too weak to stand

Inside that bed her child had lain
In peaceful slumbers hold
Had played and laughed and giggled
For stories that she told

Her mind cringes at the silence
...not one more lullaby...
Will fill her beloveds ears again
Not one more kiss goodnight...

Reaching for her babies blanket
Pulling it to her cheek
She rocks her missing child
Lost to an endless sleep

Her eyes are closed in memory
Locking out deaths cold chill
Enveloped in her child's embrace
A place where time stands still...

"Kali I’m so so sorry you are going through this. Grief is hard enough, but going through it secretly, all the while having to continue showing up for your kids, is just brutal. Perhaps your friend was careful to hide your conversations behind…"

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
