Lost

I lost you

Abruptly

It hurt me

Instantly

I lost me

Inadvertently

I lost you and lost me

Simultaneously

My nana dear

I miss you being here

The same year I lost you

Is the same year I found me

Because I had him on the first

The first of the year

And God made it clear

That I would have a happy new year

My son was born

The same year I lost you

So the words ring true

The same year i lost you

I found myself to

I am a mom

I say this calm

With much charm

I was lost now I’m found

And even though you’re not around

You’re still teaching me lessons

The same year I lost you

I gave birth to a blessing

My story isn't over yet; not by a long shot! I've suffered and been knocked down but I'm giving it all I got! Some lie down and give in all dirty and worn. My story isn't over yet; although I'm tattered and torn. I've wanted to give up but then I think, what if I'm near the end? What if I quit now; I have to win! My story isn't over yet; believe you me! My strength is not my own I look to my creator and He gives me all I need! I'm sustained on the hardest of days, during the middle of the scruff, this battle will not defeat me; I'm not giving up! My story isn't over yet; not until God makes it so. At that point in time I will mercifully be called home! Until that time, watch and trust what I say; my story isn't over yet and it may be fighting from my bed, but I will own the day!
