 ~FOLLOW ME~

I offer my hand to you
All Mothers and Dads
To walk the road I'm walking
To help you when you're sad

To all the siblings
And all grandparents too
Aunts and uncles and friends
Everyone that cares about your child and you

When a child dies
It defies the reason of life
There are no answers to WHY
They left so young in their life

There are no answers to the questions
That many of us ask every day
"Why my child?"
"Did I have to lose this way?"

There are no answers for the mothers
Who give birth to one who died
To never hear that child say Mommy
We ask a million whys?

There are no answers for I have searched
Many times through the years
I can't begin to count the churches
Where I sat and cried so many tears

Looking for an answer
Of why my own left so young
He was my dream and life
His life had just begun

There are no answers for the parents
Who get a phone call in the night
Saying, "Come to the hospital"
Something with your child isn't right

I've learned through all the years I've had
On the road I've had to walk
That our lives are changed drastically
And about our child's life, we have to talk

We cannot forget what we had
Nor what we no longer have today
We can't forget how happy we were
Before our precious child went away

Follow me now as I keep walking
This long road in my life
For I know the feelings of heartache
For all familes, husbands and wives

I too buried a child
That I will always love
I will always wonder why
He has to reside in Heaven above

When I didn't get enough time one earth
To do what moms are supposed to do
I didn't protect him from all life's harms
As I had promised myself I would do

I keep on walking as the years go by
I sometimes fall, I sometimes cry
But I am surviving the best I can do
I know what you feel, I feel it too

I feel for the parents who sit in a courtroom
And wait for justice to be done
For parents who sit and cry
For the life of their loved one

I cannot say any words
That will make you feel very well
I know from experience myself
To lose is child is a living hell

Follow me
For I have so far survived
Yet if I could turn the hands of time
By child would still be alive.
