So I was listening to Shinedown's song "The Crow & The Butterfly" today. First off I have to add that the day of my loss a few hours before I went to the ER I put all of my pregnancy books and related stuff on the top shelf of my closet. I knew what was happening and couldn't bare the thought of coming home and seeing that stuff so I put it away. So its been up in our closet for 2 and a half months and I don't plan on looking at it until I get pregnant again. The only thing that is out in the open is my u/s photo I got the day before and its in a frame on our "photo wall". So back to the song, the lyrics hit home big time for me. Have any of you had any experiences like this?

I painted your room at midnight
So I'd know yesterday was over
I put all your books on the top shelf
Even the one with the four leaf clover

Man, I'm getting older
I took all your pictures off the wall
And wrapped them in a newspaper blanket
I haven't slept in what seems like a century
And now I can barely breathe

Just like a crow chasing the butterfly
Dandelions lost in the summer skies
When you and I were getting high as outer space
I never thought you'd slip away
I guess I was just a little too late

Your words still serenade me
Your lullabies won't let me sleep
I've never heard such a haunting melody
Oh, it's killing me
You know I can barely breathe

Just like a crow chasing the butterfly
Dandelions lost in the summer skies
When you and I were getting high as outer space
I never thought you'd slip away
I guess I was just a little too late

Just like a crow chasing the butterfly
Dandelions lost in the summer skies
When you and I were getting high as outer space
I never thought you'd slip away

Like a crow chasing the butterfly
Dandelions lost in the summer skies
When you and I were getting high as outer space
I never thought you'd slip away
I guess I was just a little too late

Just a little too late

Only part of it really hit home but I decided to post all the lyrics.
