Dedicated to the Unseen


Woken by an unfamiliar alteration
I knew something had changed
White lights and taut beds
You seized my hand
And looked into my eyes
As we knew what we have mislaid
And the angels weep
For the souls left on earth
Anguished the loss of what could have been
And never was
The angels cried
As they cradled chaste virtue
Reading them for what would be
And the angels smiled
Knowing what we do not
But eminence silently
Waiting
For our faith to grow strong
So we then will know
Someday
Innocence vanished on earth
 was gained above
And the angels cry

  1. For anyone who has lost a child, born or unborn, they are still souls that lived within us for a time; short or long they are all meaningful
