Her test came back positive
So tears was her celebration
For the outcome is now negative
She is a Christian

In forty-five weeks life is expected
Contentment anxiety arrested
Horrible possibilities haunts her
It was now time to deliver

Normality lived two hours
Then the bad news was ours
Her gift was now without breath
Bliss taken by death
Andre Pinnock Nov 2013
To my ears our country songs are stained with pain.

The birth of each sun paints a picture of optimistic love living again.

The late evening dew falls and cold air rest where sun once warmed.

Lonely bed lies cold for sleep view the night’s sky instead.

Will your presence replace this emptiness that I hold?

The thought of it being possible paces anxiously on my mind.

Will pleasure and passion ever kiss the hands of time?

Will my air continue to be saddened by this regret of mine?

Is the wind blowing my beautiful picture further away?

Please! Don’t go, for I am now feeling dismay.

— The End —
