Just say "I'm sorry"

You don't know how I feel; please don't tell me that you do.
There's just one way to know - have you lost a child too?
"You'll have another child" - must I hear this everyday?
Can I get another mother too, if mine should pass away?

Don't say it was "God's will" - that's not the God I know.
Would God, on purpose, break my heart, then watch as my tears flow?
"You have an Angel in Heaven - a precious child above."
But tell me, to whom here on earth, shall I give this love?

"Aren't you better yet?" Is that what I heard you say?
No! A part of my heart aches and I'll always feel some pain.
You think that silence is kind, but it hurts me even more.
I want to talk about my child who has gone through death's door.

Don't say these things to me, although you do mean well.
They do not take my pain away, I must go through this hell.
I will get better, slow but sure - and it helps to have you near
But a simple "I'm sorry you lost your child" is all I need to hear.
