Gone too soon

She opened the blinds and let the light in
Felt of the warmth and could breathe again
Emotions ran high and darkness consumed
The loss of her child, a life gone too soon

She thought she would find strength with each new day
Memories in her mind would continually play
She closed her eyes and tried to make sense of it all
But nothing could explain her terrible fall

She fell to her knees and began to pray
Father please help me, please take this pain away
A feeling of peace came over her, from head to toe
Her Father was aware of her, that much she did know

Weeks became months and months turned into years
Her feelings for her daughter were still so dear
But her pain subsided as she leaned on God
Knowing she would be with her again, helped her move on
