In Memory Of My Mother
I lost my mother a little over 3 years
ago to ovarian cancer.
After she died, I sat down
and "wrote her some letters."
It has helped me
deal with her death.
I have added some links
at the end of this page
to help inform people about cancer.
Please,
tell your family memebers and friends
just how much you care for them
before it is too late!
Dear Mother
Dear Mother,
So many things I wanted to share
But I didn't quite know how.
So many things iwanted to say
But I guess it's too late now.
In two short weeks we bacame closer
Than I ever thought we would be.
Although those weeks were painful,
They will always be special to me.
I finally gave back
some of the love and care
That you gave me in my younger days.
That last night and that last smile,
From my memory will never fade.
Love,
Your Daughter
Your Sweet Voice
You lie there with a look of peace
Like I have never seen before.
There is no doubt at all in my mind,
I know you are with the Lord.
You went through hell
those last few weeks,
So I know you were heaven bound.
But it still hurt to say good-bye
And place you in the ground.
It has been two years
since you passed away
Yet, you still feel so near.
Sometimes at night, when I can't sleep
It is your sweet voice I hear.
When The Pain Grabs Hold
Little things.
That's all it takes,
To make me start thinking of you.
A word.
A place that we shared,
Doing the things that we use to do.
You're gone.
My life goes on,
Because I know you are with the Lord.
Miss you?
You know I do.
So does the grandchild you adored.
The pain.
Sometimes it cuts deep.
The tears start and I lose all control.
Relief.
Tears soothe once more,
Until another time,
When the pain grabs hold.
