After my son died at 2 1/2 days, we had nowhere to turn for scripture, poetry, or images. During the past few years since, I've been collecting things that are meaningful to me, and hopefully will be to other Baby Loss Mamas (BLMs). Peace and love!

I Will Not Say Goodbye - Danny Gokey

From: I will not say Goodbye

by Danny Gokey

I don't want to feel better
I don't want to not remember
I will always see your face
In the shadows of this haunted place
I will laugh, I will cry
Shake my fist at the sky
But I will not say goodbye

They keep saying time will heal
But the pain just gets more real
The sun comes up each day
Finds me waiting, fading, hating, praying
If I can keep on holding on
Maybe I can keep my heart from knowing that you're gone.

Charles Dickens quote

And can it be that in a world so full and busy



     the loss of one creature makes a void so wide and deep that nothing


          but the width and depth of eternity can fill it up!

My Child's Name

My Child’s Name


Author Unknown

Go ahead and mention my child,
The one that died, you know.
Don’t worry about hurting me further.
The depth of my pain doesn’t show.
Don’t worry about making me cry.
I’m already crying inside.
Help me to heal by releasing the tears that I try to hide.
I’m hurt when you just keep silent, pretending he didn’t exist.
I’d rather you mention my child,
Knowing that he has been missed.
You asked me how I was doing,
I say “pretty good” or “fine.”
But healing is something ongoing.
I feel it will take a lifetime.
