My Parents Are Survivors

Survivor Creed

We are survivors without any choices.
Dreams of tomorrow are gone today.
Echoing sounds of our children's voices.
Our paths are crossed along the way.

Supporting each other in times of pain.
That is a Survivor Creed.
For a beginning of new hope explained.
This is what we all need.

We need to know that someone cares.
About the pain we feel each day.
That someone understands and shares.
And will be there when we say

"I don't know if I can to learn to live.
Or if I would ever even want to.
I may never learn how to forgive.
But if I do, it will be because you~!"

Remembering

Go ahead and mention my child
The one that died, you know
Don't worry about hurting me further
The depth of my pain doesn't show.

Don't worry about making me cry
I'm already crying inside
Help me to heal by releasing
The tears that I try to hide.

I'm hurt when you just keep silent
Pretending it doesn't exist
I'd rather you'd mention my child
Knowing that he has been missed.

You asked me how I'm doing I say
"pretty good" or "fine"
But healing is something on-going
I feel it will take a lifetime.
