My Mind Wanders Back

As my mind wanders back a few years
Amidst the pain the grief and many tears
I was not prepared for what fate would choose
To awaken one morn to find my son I would lose
The thoughts and images fill my mind so clear
It seems like yesterday but now almost 2 years
The dark night ends and the new day does arrive
Another day has ended but I still survive
The first 9 months my heart was filled with hate
Trying to find fault to ease my son's fate
Then one day I met a special person
Who seen all the anger and knew how much I was hurting
Your son now gone your love is so strong
You have to let go so he can move on
I went back home and fell to my knees
I prayed to God to help me please
I prayed to God to welcome my son that day
To welcome him home and ease my pain someway
I told my son it was time to move on
I have accepted the fact that he was now gone
My faith in God and my prayers that day
Eased my heart and took some grief away
For then I knew my son was now free
To live with God for eternity
Months have passed now the years have too
Deep in my heart the Love still burns for you
