Helen Louise Jones is childless, a singer songwriter and a Gateway Woman.She lives in London. ‘Childless.You’re Not Alone’ was written for World Childless Week.

I hope no one will be emotionally and mentally isolated in childlessness in the future.
Ironically, if I hadn’t been childless, I’d never have become a singer. Music and writing have been my meditation for 20 years.My voice is mine, it gives me a constant connection to my heart while connecting with others.
This is my 1st song about Childlessness. It was surprisingly challenging to sing and brought up alot of stuff.I cried in the recording session, my throat physically closed up around the lyrics. My journey with my childlessness is ongoing.
I highly recommend singing as a therapy. Anytime and anywhere as long as a sound comes out. Just feel and breathe through til something happens, when we've stayed silent it can take a while.Its a helpful healer, your voice will open your heart and bring out the deepest expression of all you hold within yourself.

We’re Not Alone - Nomo Blues’

'Childless.......
is a place I live my life
…..a sea of rough emotion
knockin' against the tide
But I know…. oh I know
……I’m not Alone….

Ive been so scared
to write this song its true…
Thirty long years
and what Ive been through
But I know, I know
…..I’m not alone

I believed some day
My sun would shine my way
So patient n strong
I knew I couldn’t be wrong
My dreams I could see
My baby and me
…and my grieving bleeding heart
could stop, tearing me apart

To want a child
So bad and be denied
This world was against me
I waited, how I cried
This Pain , oh but I know
Now Im not alone

I needed something
To make me glad I was alive
Everyday
was getting harder to survive
But I know, you know, we know
We re not alone,

I believed some day
The sun would shine my way
I had to be patient n strong
I knew I couldn’t be wrong
My dreams I could see
This baby and me
…and my grieving bleeding heart
could stop, tearing me apart

I needed something
To make me glad I was alive
Cos everyday
was getting harder to survive
But I know, oh yes I do
We re we’re not alone,

And we can say it
Now hold your head up high and sing
We got to be counted
For the women who have been
Theres a bright way
A Gateway for Nomo Blues

We got to be counted
For the women who have been
Theres a A Gateway
Theres a bright way
Nomo Blues
