BY THE WAY



This poem wasn't written by me,
but I think it is a very special poem.
If you have ever lost a child,
I think it puts it all into words.

"By the way...
has anyone seen my mind...
I seem to have misplaced it,
somewhere.
If you find it,
maybe you'll find,
along with it,
a million shattered pieces
of what used to be my heart.
If found,
maybe you could return them to me.
You see,
I lost my baby boy recently,
and my reason for living
and hoping
and dreaming
seemed to go with him.
I know I cannot join him,
for I have others to care for,
but for right now,
2 + 2 does not equal 4,
there are no rainbows,
no shining stars,
just empty voids
that fill the holes in my heart.
By the way...
has anyone seen my mind?
I seem to have misplaced it
somewhere...
If you find it,
maybe you'll find
along with it
my right arm
and my left....
they ached so much
to hold my baby boy
that I discarded them..
I don't need any more pain.
It rolls in
like waves from the ocean
it recedes sometimes, too,
but it's the giant squalls
that come much too frequent
eroding the shores of my soul.
By the way...
has anyone seen my mind?
I seem to have misplaced it...
somewhere."
