{FROM A FEMALE PERSPECTIVE}

{helping a friend to deal with her agony...part of the healing process, after abortions, is to write about your feelings}

the morning glories didn't bloom today
...like they did yesterday

the sun didn't shine
the wind didn't speak in whispers
only i could hear

turbulent seas surround me
darkness overcomes me
how could i ever ask GOD to forgive me

in the wee hours
when the silence is loudest
i wallow in my tears
...crying seven years of torment and regret

GOD, i can't get over this
{sigh}

WHY

i ask myself
seven years since peace gave me relief
...as grief fills me

WHY

i cry out at night
when sorrow over takes me
when the peace of sleep escapes me

WHY

of all the things i could have done
...should have done
did i give up my daughter
{son}

WHY.

partly cloudy
covers my sunshiny day
with chances of rain swells
like hurricane waves off a stormy sea

'tis the forecast of me

it ain't easy...
when somber days
rain grief
where
sorrow
is
all i can see

it ain't easy

traveling the high road
when
pain
and
suffering
fills my way

no,
it ain't easy...
to face heartache
and wake
another day
and
smile
like
heartache didn't come my way

no, it ain't easy...

should i take another life...
my life.:(

FATHER, take this cup from before me.
