Time does not ease my pain
like people often say,
In fact for me, its growing
worse every single day.
I never asked for much,
May be the odd hug or two,
For me looking after you
Made me so complete,
Even those long hours in
the middle of the night
when you gave me
Such a fright
you looked so blue
but thank god
You came too.
A mothers love is special
And that's true,
But since the first day
I held you in my arms,
Just two days after you were born,
I knew We had a deep connection.
You had finally found the key to my heart!
So when it came to becoming your Godparent
You can imagine how proud I felt,
And the first day of school
You held my hand so tight,
All the laughs we shared,
and lots tears too,
But for me it became a pleasure
And never a chore to do.
So after all the days
and nights, and a few years too
its not surprising
how lost i am with out you!!
now your no longer
Apart of me life
My heart is locked again
With many tears and endless
Hours of Pain.

Hello Prettyrose,
The sad loss of someone you love, can never be completely
understood by anyone but the person it happens to.
We must all no in our hearts that the person that we have
lost is always there, they would not want us to be sad, they
would want us to go on, try to find a new way of moving on.
By moving on, maybe a new person will come along to give
us hugs and love, not the same as the person we lost, but
still a new kind of love, that again we can cherish.
It never means that you have to loose sight of the special
bond you had with the person that you lost.
But all these things take time, maybe weeks, months, years,
but if we try to move on, I am sure it will happen.
You have to keep hoping.
Jenny.

Hi prettyrose,
Jenny again, if this is just a poem, please except my
apologies for thinking it's real, it's just that you write
with such passion.
Jenny.

Hi Jenny, Thank you again for taking the time to read my writing and also commenting on them, and I really take that as a compliment about the passion part, because yes I do hope that my love for writing and the fact I try to relate to people to help them, does come out in my work.
I know there are better worded writers than me out there and on this site, like yourself. and most time my work is fiction but other times sadly its inspired by true events, like the above work& because again this site is to public I wont say much more, only its was not through death I have lost them thankfully.
however my writing is not to make a name, but some money would be nice hey Jenny ha ha. No seriously for me its my fresh air and main way to try help people deal with these sad but true events, but please do not think I am all ways miserable, my nature a bubbly person, Its just that I have seen a lot and felt a lot of heartache.
take care x

hi Jenny, I meant to say, thank you for pointing out the fact to some people it may seem like a death I am talking about but its not, so maybe I make the end clearer, but like you said Fiction or not I try and write as it is and not to much mumble jumble lol x

I love the fact that you always speak from the heart, that
is a rare gift.
Please keep writing.
Jenny. x

hi Prettyrose. I really liked this too. I wanted to say that I read it as a separation through estrangement of some kind - distance, argument etc, not necessarily death
Prettyrose | October 4, 2010 - 16:43

Hi I think it is great that you write to help others be it fiction or not. I'm sure that what you write, when it comes from the heart, like this piece, helps somebody else to see that they are not alone. I think this poem expresses a loss that a lot of us human beings have experienced at one point in our lives and the vivid way you describe it gives a truth although it is harsh.
yes keep writing
;)

Hi Highhat :) Thank you for your comments.
Thank you I will hopefully be able to keep writing until my hands drop off ha ha.
And I did not want it to come across harsh, but the truth.
Thanks again for reading :)))
sorry HighHat, if you meant harsh for other reasons I see what you meant :))) take care
