Poem ........MUM

I was with  you

When you slipped away Mum

Heard you take your last breath

I feel lost and sad without you Mum

It's  so hard to accept your death 

I wake up each day  Mum

And i realise  that your gone

It just feels hard with out you Mum

It feels so wrong 

 My eyes begin to cry  Mum

they fill up with more tears

Now that you're gone Mum

I  know i need  to be strong

It won't be easy ,as you've always been there

To give me love ,and tell me you care

But your locked inside my heart Mum

And that's where ill keep you safe

 thats is where you will  stay

Treasured memories

that we made Mum

Will never go away

But  God took you 

He saw you suffering Mom

as did we all

It was  your time to go Mum

And you heard God's call

So you slipped away to heaven to rest

To rest in tranquility 

calm and peace

And all your earthly pain was gently released 

I love you  Mum

Always and forever Mum

Untill my dying day.

    Thank you Micky for your kind reply to my poem I wrote. Yes it did help me a lot ,that's what I do when facing tough  things I go through in my life, I write my feelings down in verse. I've written a few poems on here now,some are about my feelings and thoughts  when I found out I had breast cancer in May 2020,I find it a great comfort.  I've had responses  to my poems,and I hope that they will and do help others too.X

  • That was just lovely, really lovely.

    That is how I still feel after 5 years.

    If you don't mind I'm going to take a couple of your lines and put them on a card on my mums flowers that I lay

  • Bless you, such a positive way to process your feelings by writing them down in a poem like this. Even better that you find comfort in it and they surely do help others. I lost my dad to cancer years ago, it still touched me.  I'll go back over your posts and find your others then. May 2020 I wasn't yet on this rollercoaster and so I haven't seen that one. 

    I am sorry for your loss and hope that otherwise you are keeping well.

    Thank you so much . Its so hard to lose a parent  ,ecspecialy your mum. I think its the bond we have from birth. I always dreaded that day, and you can never really prepare yourself for the emptiness you feel at your mums passing, it hurts so much,but you just go into robot mode, and little things set you off crying ,every day the realisation hits you that your mums gone, no longer here on earth . I'm guessing I'll be like this for quite a while. Still got the funeral to arrange with my sister, but she has covid this week,last week I had a bad chest infection so we hope to do that next week, hopefullyTuesday. 

    I am honoured that you want to use some of my words on your beloved mums card, I wrote the poem when I was having trouble sleeping ,thinking about my mum. But I posted it on here in the hope that it would also resonate with others and somehow give them comfort to know they are not alone in thier grief .

    Thank you once again

    Thank you Mikey

    That's such a lovely reply. I'm sorry to hear you lost your dad to cancer, and that it resonated with you,you never ever forget your loved ones no matter how or what they died of ,or however long ago it happened. 

    My husband commited suicide 25 yrs ago , its easier now, life does go on but you never ever forget.X.

  • I've read some mum poems over the years but..

    What you have written is beautiful and exactly how i feel even now.

    Anything can start me off crying. 

    Im taking flowers over the weekend and your words will be with her too. Thankyou.

    I feel like an orphan,  

    I'm sending you my condolences at this very sad time.

    But I'm sure they walk with us every day. And I promise it does get a little easier as time goes on.

    Wishing you and your sister well. 

    Best wishes to you and your family xx

     

  • Thank you, very true words spoken once again. I'm sorry to hear about your husband, such a cross for you and your family to bare. You're right though, no matter how much time passes you never forget. 
    I hope you and your family find some comfort when your beloved mums funeral can be arranged. 
    Keep writing - much love n hugs Mickey xx ️

  • Thank you so much just got the funeral to get through on the 9th November .xxx
