A Poem For Atti

My heart breaks
Again and again
Every time I see pictures of you
Because I don’t just
Want to see you
I want to touch your face
And hold you close.

I want to see life in your eyes
And a smile on your lips
To hear you laugh
To hear your cries
The weight of you in my arms
Is missing, just like your place
In my heart.

I feel like I’m forgetting
The smell of your hair
The sound of your voice
How it felt to hold you.
All I can remember
Is when I had to say goodbye to you
My precious baby boy.


Also, I found a page where I wrote about Atti.  It's a group for women that have experienced pregnancy/infant loss.  Each story is heartbreaking in its own way.
