The Life We Knew

The Life We Knew The Life we knew is gone,
For now we have a special one.
Look forward,not behind,
If you don't,you'll miss a special time.
There's no smiles, but thats ok,
My Son looks at me in a special way.
He may not walk,or talk,or coo,
But see...he has no clue.
He's different from me and you.
People stare, it seems unfair,
But look at him..he doesn't care.
I close my eyes and say a prayer,
For those who stare are everywhere.
It's me you see who feels the pain,
Cries the tears and feels insane.
There are many things I do not know.
But, theres one thing I know is so,
When God comes,he'll take him there,
To that special place in the air,
To run, and jump, and laugh and play.
And when he's done he'll smile and say:
Mommy, It's OK,
I was Special anyway
