Yesterday isn't gone I hear it when a door slams shut
POEM| Yesterday isn’t Gone
Does Grief End?
On the 4th of September, I googled "does grief end". It's been three years and ten months since I lost my Mum, and I miss her so much.
If We Were Having Tea #6
If we were having tea, I’d choose a seat in the private part of the café and stare into your eyes for about ten minutes before placing my order.
I Can’t Believe It’s Been Three Years
I don’t care what anyone says because I know no amount of preparation, planning or time can make grief and losing a loved one easy. There are a whole lot of easy tasks but grieving isn’t one of them.
If We Were Having Tea #5
If we were having tea, I'd be so happy to see you. I'd give you a big hug and linger for about a minute or two. I'd finally take a seat and ask you what it's like up there with a big smile on my face.
POEM| A Better Place
Whenever I was told
you left this world
for a better place
I never believed
Two Years Gone But Never Forgotten
I spent every day at the hospital
but I didn’t care
I spent my birthday at the hospital
but I didn’t care
POEM| The Scars Of Loss
The scars of loss
have left me a mess
I’m dreaming while awake
and hurting every step of the way
POEM| No One Tells You
No one tells you that
when death comes
to take someone you love
it doesn’t listen to your pleas
and it has no regard for your feelings
it doesn’t answer your cries
nor does it wait for your opinion
POEM| Dear Mama
Dear Mama,
I never thought of today
without you in it
I never knew you wouldn’t
see me become the woman
you taught me to be
