Het is vandaag precies 1 jaar geleden dat mijn moeder is overleden. Velen van jullie hebben toen zo meegeleefd en ik weet dat zij dat heel erg gewaardeerd heeft.
Ik wilde onderstaand gedicht graag delen met jullie hier. Het geeft goed mijjn gevoel weer.
I awake each morning to start a new day
But the pain of losing you never goes away.
I go about the things I have to do
And as the hours pass I think again of you.
I want to call you and just hear your voice
Then I remember that I have no choice
For you are not there and now my heart cries
Because we already said our last goodbye
To say Mum I love you and I always will
And hope that much of you, in me you’ve instilled.
The day that you left is hard to forget
That you were going where I couldn’t go.
And now all my memories of you are so dear
But gosh, how I miss you and wish you were here.
Who now can hear me when I need to cry?
It so hard to tell your “Mum goodbye.”
Someday I know all will be well
And I’ll see you again with stories to tell
Of how you were missed and how we have grown
And hope we could share time together again
Until then my memories of you I’ll keep near
And I’ll pass them on to those who are
I miss you Mum ??
