Stupefied I stood; I waited frozen, in vain.
All I could feel was a deep & numbing pain.
Yes! I wanted desperately for it to begin again.
I looked to the heavens, I prayed & I pled;
Before I gave in & even hope fled.
I tried to be strong, even though my heart bled.
My senses frigid, I tried to understand,
This happenstance that fell, unplanned.
Oh, the ache was more than I could withstand.
Someone held my hand, tried to be kind.
But overcome with sorrow, I had no mind.
The grief enveloped me; it held me in a bind.
You ask what happened. What should begin again?
It’s a heartbeat that I want to hear above this din.
My bereaved motherhood wants my child alive, again.
