Once there was a girl who had nothing left to lose.

She lost everything.

Her parents died one a heart attack another COPD.

Everyone left their sympathy to her reminding her of something loathed most.

People felt sorry for her.

All she wanted is happiness.

In fact, she was happy she married her best friend.

She is very happy with him life felt complete she was even pregnant.

Nothing could be better than that.

But all of her hopes shattered when one day she had to leave her husband for four weeks.

She was a disaster, for many weeks she questioned why this happened.

She loathed being back in her hometown, she just wanted to be with him.

Everything just didn’t make sense to her, something horrid happened she lost her baby.

The pain of that loss became so much for her she went back to smoking.

Her heart, her everything, her baby she left lost.

Everything she lost nothing made sense to her.

***

Then one day she comes back to her husband like a new woman altogether.

Trying to put the past behind her.

After losing their baby nothing made sense she screams in her dreams

WHY!!!

She wonders what would have happened if the baby made it to full term.

Her memories come back to her in her home,

and more pain arises within her.

With Christmas already here she feels more alone than everything.

But the only thing she has left is him, not her family.
