I feel your loss as you penned the words. Yet, to forget that spirit that is your heart would be far worst that sadness. I pray that love will ease your heart, comfort your soul and grant you peace. She is watching you cry and her heart is breaking. She wants you to carry on and smile.

My heart goes out to you for your lost
For I too lost a beautiful daughter Feb 6 2006 from a tumor on her brain
Today is her birthday and that another knife in my heart To hold it together I think of the story told to me years ago All the children were siting next to Jesus laughing and having fun except for one
Jesus asked why she sat apart from the others Jesus, I watch the sadness of my mother every day and night I feel sorrow for her that I fill guilty to go and have fun when she is in so much pain
one day a angel came down and told what was going on with her daughter
the next day the mother play happy music cleaning her house, caring for her garden, and join a women club and
helping other people going through storms
now the Daughter is happy sitting with Jesus and the rest of the children

Your story brought tears to my eyes, also. Your words gave me hope to find the strength to mend and I thank you. I will go forth to mend for I know I will join her again in a better place. Yes, there will be days when the pain is worse than ever but she would not want me to cry but help care for her children left behind ages 5 and 18. We talk about mommy. I told the little one every time she sees a ladybug, a butterfly, or a feather, it is mommy coming to see her to say I love you.

    Teary eyed,

This work has reached the exceptional level

An 'AWESOME' Biographical Poetry presentation, Mystery Writer! Therapeutically written, yet heart-wrenching. Having walked a mile in your shoes, might I recommend, "Let the sad yesterdays go and walk to the happy tomorrows in your life." God willing, you shall find peace of mind. The artwork by Seshadri Sreenivasan is astonishing! Best wishes for a contest win and God bless.
My deepest sympathies,
Bill

I like the message of this. You've definitely got to ditch sadness to live and replace it with gladness. Sadness is a spiralling staircase that always goes down, no going up button anywhere to be found. You've done a fine job capturing and staying true to the theme of this throughout. Well done!

I am truly very sorry for the recent loss of your dear daughter.
I can't imagine losing one of my children.

When we lose someone we love dearly it tears a gaping hole in the fabric of our hearts.
They take a piece of us with them when they go.
It matters little if we lose them to the cruel clutches of death and the cold confines of the grave. Or, they simply decide one day to walk away, out of our lives and never look back.
Like any rip or tear in most fabrics, the hole can and will be mended in time--if the seamstress is skilled enough.
Still, no matter how skilled the seamstress, the evidence that there was once a hole forever lingers.
I think loosing a loved one is a lot like that, in many respects.
You have my deepest sympathies.

    Yes, dear friend, a rip and tear, well stated. This seamstress is mending by sharing and putting her feelings to the paper. The hole is cavernous and time will fill it with memories. faith in God will see me through and meander toward reuniting.
    Thank you so much, Dean ,for these lovely words.

    Have a good weekend.

Mourning is of course a natural reaction to a lost loved onee but it has to be said that it is one of the most selfish of emotions. Under those circumstances we are sad for what we have lost when really, if we believe we should be joyful over the loved one's gaining the joy of heaven. Perhaps a thought along those lines might help. I would hope so.
