Yanaka

by Wings Of Flames   Jan 5, 2007


+ Something I'd liek you to consider before continuing to read this poem. This is a true story about my sister having her first miscarrige. Yes her first. She did have two. The name of the baby was Yanaka she was a beautiful girl. Forever in my heart darling +

Two days of life were drawn,
Into the eclipse of youth,
Where will the innocence go?
Death has given proof,

I believe in justice,
I know it isn't fair,
I cannot explain this,
Bundle of despair,

Colours seem so bland,
When there's only grey,
Smeared into nothingness,
While demons come to play,

Black rainbows in my heart,
Everytime I cry,
Was your birthday yesterday,
Then two days on you'd die,

Mother and her baby,
Two days left for her,
My sister and my niece,
As emotion starts to stir,

Then the day has come,
This is what God gives,
The trauma just begins,
But mother only lives,

On and on it goes,
Now suicide has taste,
Bipolar has begun,
And a life she wants to waste.

    What a wonderful job you have done putting this tragedy to rhyme and portraying the utter sorrow and despair. I am sorry for your loss and the rest of your family as well. It is just not fair.....
