It is almost 15 yrs since you passed away Mum and still not a day goes by when don't think about you. I was confused and angry for a very long time. Every morning I would wake up wondering how I would get through another day without going totally insane with grief. I kept willing my body to shut down and my heart to stop so I would not have to go on living in the intolerable pain that was consuming me day by day. At times the sadness inside me is still painfully raw and at other times it is not so bad, it is something that I have had to learn to live with. I love and miss you very much and wish you hadn't left us but the pain inside you must have been so great and beyond anyones comprehension. Hope you and Michelle are at peace now. I never wanted you to suffer and I'm sorry I couldn't help or if I didn't try hard enough. I never thought I was going to get over losing you but I'm still here and you now have a lovely Grandson called Noah who will be 5 yrs in November 2009. I love him with everything I've got and he is my world now and he gives me strength to keep going. You would have been so proud of him.
You were my Mum and always will be and I know how much you loved us. R.I.P. Mum, love you so much xxxx
Poem of Life
Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn some things,
but never meant to stay...
Our destination is a place
Far greater than we know.
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the lord.
"How long will the pain last?"
A broken-hearted mourner asked me.
"All the rest of your Life,"
I have to answer truthfully.
We never quite forget.
No matter how many years pass, we remember.
The loss of a loved one is like a major operation.
Part of us is removed, and we have a scar
For the rest of our lives.
As years go by, we manage.
There are things to do, people to care for,
Tasks that call for full attention.
But the pain is still there, not far below the surface.
We see a face that looks familiar,
Hear a voice that echoes,
See a photograph in someone's album,
See a landscape that once we saw together,
And it seems as though
A knife were in the wound again.
But not so painfully,
And mixed with joy, too,
Because remembering a happy time is not all sorrow;
It brings back some happiness with it, too.
How long will the pain last?
"All the rest of your life."
But the thing to remember
Is that not only will the pain last,
But the blessed memories as well.
Tears are proof of life;
The more love, the more tears.
If this be true, then how could we ever ask
That the pain cease altogether?
For then the memory of love would go with it.
The pain of grief is the price we pay for love.

Your Angel, Your Mother by Natasha Jordan
You look back on memories you forget you had,
And at times you'll smile, even though it hurts so bad.
Your Mother is a special woman, and no one can take her place,
You'll find a peace of mind when you remember her smiling face.
Your Mother is an Angel, now she flies high above the rest,
And in your hearts, always and forever, she will be the very best.
She has earned her wings, and it's time for her to fly,
I know it hurts, no one’s ever ready to say goodbye.
She knows you do not understand, and that you cry at night.
But as you finally drift off to sleep, let her memory hold you tight.
She will be your Guardian Angel, through the rest of your life.
Helping lead you on the road, between what’s wrong and right.
Your Mother loves you so much, and her love will always remain true
Please don't ever think for a second, that your Mother will forget you
A Mother’s love is like no other in the whole world
And she has the most wonderful memories, of her little boy and girl.
She has taken them with her, as she's flown away
Up to heaven free of pain, to her new home where she will stay.
So although you cannot see her, and you wish she could be there
Your Mother can always hear you, and your Mother will always care.
A Mother does not forget, the two greatest loves of her life
She loved nothing more than being your Mummy & your Daddy's wife
She is so proud of her family, and that’s in her heart to stay
Even though she's an Angel, and has had to fly away.
So as you cry your tears, remember your Mother’s love
Being sent to you from her, from the beautiful Heaven above.
She'll be there through your good times, she'll be there through your bad
She'll be there when you're happy, she'll be when you sad.
Your Mother has become an Angel now, It's her time to fly
And you will never know how much it hurt her
To watch you have to say goodbye.
Lost To Suicide - by Rosalind Roberts
If only I could mend a broken heart and ease your pain
You would still be here on earth and make me smile again
But you took it all upon yourself and left us this way
You could not stand to live just one more day.
Some say it’s the easy way out, they haven’t got a clue
Your mind was made up, it was so hard for you to do
We will always love and miss you every single day
What a terrible price that you paid in your own way.
Forever you will be loved never will we ever forget
Someone so special we always live with our regret
That we could not see what was in your head and heart
One day we will all be joined together no longer apart......
