She cried until her face was sore; until her eyes could cry no more.
She ached and she screamed for the pain to subside but she knew she’d never be the same again, for something inside her soul had died.
For better or for worse be what it may, she knew from then on her life would take on a new way.
She was lost and confused and felt like the world had become undone. She was blinded as she searched aimlessly for her son.
She remembered his warmth and his strong beating heart; his little fingers as they tried to reach hers and then the final moments before they were torn apart.
Then she realised how strong she actually was and how she couldn’t let him down.
She realised that her priorities had changed but she couldn’t let herself drown.
Although her life had lost all it's colour, it didn’t change the fact that she was now an angel’s mother.
The tears would never dry and the pain would never go away but her angel was engraved in her life and heart and that is where he would stay.
