Where Were You

The writing that follows is a result of survival.  It is to God because I had all of these emotions and He was there.  Until you are  in the grip of grief for the loss of a child.....there is no fathoming this type of emotion.  Remember....I was once carefree and had two of the most wonderful children on the planet.  it changed in a second.  I want to begin to pull up the feelings which I had because it may help someone.  Do not feel pity but feel love and offer strength, love, hugs, and company to those who are hurting.  You are the Savior in Flesh.  He stopped the Sting but he needs you to fulfill the comfort.

Where Were You

Where were You-I nearly drowned
(No) I couldn't see You with waves crashing all around
Where were You-My days stayed dark
I never knew it was You shadowing my heart

I couldn't see
I couldn't feel
I only knew pain TOO real
I could not express
But now can confess
I am only here because You drew my very breath

Where were You
   Heat was blazing
   Body shaking
   Heart shattered, strewn as glass
Where were you
   Footsteps heavy
   Faith unsteady
   Soul sinking, fading fast

 ...
I'm only here because You knew my every breath
I'm only here because You drew my very breath

Thanks to You because You still lead me daily through the Valley of the Shadow of Death.
