Peanut

Grief and loss come in so many ways,
Some say it gets easier, some say it’s just a phase.
I can tell you now this pain will last forever,
Only gets made worse by one thing after another.

My heart hurts a lot more today,
I am broken inside and I’m not ok.
Another loss to grieve and a loved one to mourn,
The loss of a life so small and yet to be born.

Hearing the words that they couldn’t find a heartbeat,
The sudden realisation that we’d never get to meet.
It felt like a knife, the deepest of cuts,
Our little Bobby or Ella, now forever our little Peanut.

Hannah I know your heart is broken again,
I wish I could just take away the pain.
You’re the strongest person I have ever come across,
And together we will grow stronger after (another) devastating loss.

I love you Hannah, you’re one hell of a girl,
To the moon and the stars, you’re all of my world.
We will love Peanut forever, forever and a day.
We’ll never forget you, we both want to say.

This week has been tough, in a shitty shitty year,
Seems we haven’t gone a day without shedding a tear.
I hope one day soon, the days are bright,
And we can say ‘out of the darkness there comes light’.
