Please don't tell me you know how I feel
Unless you have lost your child too
Please don't tell me my broken heart will heal
because that is just not true
Please don't tell me my son is in a better place
though it is true. I want him here with me
Don't tell me someday I will hear his voice. see his face.
Beyond today I cannot see
Don't tell me it is time to move on because I cannot
Don't tell me to face the fact he has gone
because denial is something I cant stop
Don't tell me to be thankful for the time I had
because I wanted more
Don't tell me when I am my old self you will be glad.
I will never be as I was before
What you can tell me is you will be here for me
that you will listen when I talk of my first child
You can share with me my precious memories
you can even cry with me for a while
And please don't hesitate to say his name
because it is something I long to hear everyday.
Friends please realize that I can never be the same
But if you stand by me you may like the new person
I become some day. THANK YOU
