...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...

Assumptions

An assumption is an unexamined belief: what is thought to be true without ever really realizing that we think in that way. For better or worse, understanding starts with entertaining the idea that something is true.  Truly profound thoughts generally come to light from the relaxation of these (flawed) assumptions.  This is where I find myself today...Perhaps, one of the more significant drivers to pushing down the loss and grief at the time of the accident, ignoring it and mindlessly walking…See More
