I cast my eyes to the earth Peer beyond my feet to the soil Which now holds your heart And your body sick I know you're happier now Much like those old days When I had faith That you would love me each new day Like the one before Mom, wind surrounds me now I would have liked you here Your death is a teacher On coping unbearable pain And I am learning still Like I always will I often breathe The cemetaries atmosphere I look upon the name My name Etched on your stone I was your daughter I am your daughter You abandoned me But against your will You left me a new best friend though Promised me he'd always be there To teach me a new way of life To heal this heart Bruised, broken, and red But, mom, I feel as though he has left me I don't like to be alone I don't like to cry I hate to mourn What do I do when there is no one And it is my own fault? You were the only one to teach me How to keep my new best friend Why is it only you I could allow Reality has shot through me Like a bullet through the air Mom, please send this As a letter As a prayer To my old best friend I want to get to know him To be blessed by his sacrafice To for ONCE Feel peace in my life To understand the meaning of joy Because ever since that grave Captured your soul It took away my happiness too And locked it up And buried the key And now... I am alone Please mom, one more wish... Help him - help me - lead me back to you... |

Dear kari, My, My. Your poem has touched me deeply. I feel your pain and I am sorry for you. He hasn't left you though, kari, just keep the faith, knowing Mom is really safe with Him. She would not want you to be this grieved, although the pain is unbearable at times, just talk to the Lord, even when you can not feel Him, He IS there for you. Blessings, marcy |

Dear Kari; Oh my I feel this pain of yours! Don't give up begging Jesus to ease your pain, because He will, I promise. He got me out of the dark pit that I was in, and now I can hardly remember it! You are in my prayers and I'm a mom, so if you need one my e-mail is ellie2744@hotmail.com, We can chat. Love, Ellie 02 |

This is heartwrenching! I'm so sorry for the loss of your Mom! It is us who walks away, but all we have to do is reach out and call His name. He is there and ready and willing to take us in His arms. Just talk to Him, you don't need letters and rest assured your Mom is in a beautiful place and watching you grow. He loves you no matter what. I will also extend an ear if you need to talk. I am also a mother and know your Mom wouldn't want you to be so unhappy. If you need someone to talk to feel free to email me anytime. WhtDove377@aol.com God bless you through your grief. |

Oh Kari - How sadly beautiful this poem is. It has touched my heart in many ways. Please know where your Mom is, and know too that He, is right there with you. It's been many years since my Mom left, but, after a while the memories will become most precious, and you'll find peace knowing she's singing with the angels. Bonnie |

This is such a touching personal piece of writing, God does hear and he understands your grief, and he will never leave you or forsake you, all he asks that we reach out to him and open the door, and you have done so with this letter. Continue to talk to him, and he will give you peace. I have been in a similar situation. Peace and Love.. |
