Infants Remembered In Silence (IRIS) - Poems

Grieving Friends

By Joyce Yack

In memory of Matthew 11-13-2006

We all feel so alone,
Yet together on this site
We talk, we share,
And the candles we do lite.

We try to help each other,
Just get through another day
It might be what we write,
Or something special that we say.

To offer a shoulder,
Or to lend an ear
Isn’t that why,
We all come here?

To get through this life,
To get hearts full of pain
To not be alone,
And to not go insane.

Our journey of the deepest pain,
This road that never ends
But here we stand with grieving friends,
Knowing we will never be the same.
