Miscarriage Poem

Dedicated to my unborn child, 2006.

An Unfinished Life

© Madi N Mikala's Mom
I’m sitting here mystified and numbed with pain
To lose someone so close, yet so far away.
Some say you can’t lose something you never had
If that’s true than how can I feel this sad?
I felt more close to you, my child
More than anyone else around me
Because I felt you so deep within me.
So small no eye could see
Yet so full of life was felt already.
Disbelief and uncertainty consume my brain
As the tears fall like rain,
Heart pounding hard, feels like thunder
The sorrow and anguish down under just can’t be explained.
Was I being punished for a sin I committed?
Was I to learn something from this and just didn’t get it?
Please God answer me… what did I do to deserve this?
Does he know how much I love him?
Cuz it’s your job now to tell him!
I already miss him… I’d do anything to kiss him…
To hold him and embrace the mere presence of him.
I can only hope for one of these days
He comes back to me, this time to stay.
To find it deep within his heart
To give me the chance for a brand new start!

Dedicated to my unborn child. 2006

  • Wow, this poem brought tears to my eyes. I just lost our baby a week ago. I have been trying to look for closure but nothing has helped. It had taken us four years to conceive. When we finally did, I thought this was it. Your poem was amazing, thank you !

  • This poem brought tears to my eyes. I found out I had a miscarriage last week before my 13th birthday. When I found out I cried for the entire week straight. This poem reflects the amount of pain I felt.

  • It made me cry upon reading the poem. Until now I can't explain the feeling I felt. I can't still accept that my baby was gone. I carried her inside my womb knowing that she will die anytime, until time came she died inside my womb. My baby died last March 17, 2010 and until now I can't stop from crying and longing to have her.

  • I'm 18 yrs old and until now I didn't know how to express how I felt , you did that for me this poem express all the sadness I feel . I still remember the day I walked into my doctors office and hearing the news , I know people think I'm still young but this is so hard to get over. I wish I could have had the moment to at least say I love you . I was only 3 and half week .. I would have been 5 weeks by now . Thank you !

  • I just lost my baby 3 days ago. I was 5 weeks pregnant, my first child and we had been trying for 7 months. Whe we found I was pregnant I couldnt believe it. We were so happy, and then I start the bleeding and it wouldnt stop went to the ER and they told em it was a threatend miscarrage. Go to the doc the next day and he tells me we have a problem. Takes some blood checks the HCG levels calls me today and tells me the HCG levels are going down. As hard as we tried and we lost it. Thank you for this poem, it really expressed how I feel and I wish everyone else out there the best of luck.

  • I lose my baby about 6 months ago. I was 2 months. It's so hard for me to wake up everyday I lost a big part of my life. I just can't believe that my little angel is gone. At the time me and the baby father was so excited to have our first child. He was so ready that he wanted to even start picking baby names. We broke up now every since I had the miscarriage I really think the only reason we were together was because of the baby. Since I'm not pregnant anymore he left. I have been trying to look for closure but nothing has helped. Thank you for this poem, it really expressed how I feel and I wish everyone else out there the best of luck.

  • It was 1984, I was 5 1/2 weeks. The spotting started. The weekend was a nightmare. That's when I miscarried. The hurt was bad. It was not over, I started having pain on my right side. I was rushed into surgery for an ectopic pregnancy. The loss of one baby is sad but twins is beyond any words I could find to say. This poem speaks to my heart after all these years. The loss and pain doesn't go away, it gets set deeper in your heart and mind. My neighbor just lost her son, he was 3 years old. This has brought back a flood of emotions. My son lost his baby at 13 weeks. This death has been hard on him also. Men hold it in more than we do, but they hurt the same.

  • I found out my baby had no heart beat yesterday. I was almost 3 months. That is enough time to get an attachment and an idea of a life with the baby. I changed so many things in my life for this baby. And in an instant everything has been taken away. This is beautifully written, a pain that only someone who has been through this can truly understand. No one should ever have to go through this, much love to anyone experiencing this.
