With each day that I live,
And with every breath
That I take, things get
Harder, with out
You.

The days shred away to
Nothing, and I am left
A lone here with out you.
I want you back.

I’m standing still, just
Thinking. Thinking about
The things that we used
To do together, and what I
Long for now.

It wasn’t fair that you had
To go. You were still
Needed so much here.
You were supposed to
Watch us grow up.

I know it’s not your fault.
That just can’t be so.
But when I want you
Standing there with me,
You’re not.

I miss the fun times, and
I miss the laughter. I miss
Coming to see you, and
I miss being in your
Embrace.

Another day has passed, I
Can’t help but think of you.
I feel your spirit next to
Me, and I feel you watching
Me. Watching me grow up.

As much as I can feel you there,
I want your words in my ear,
And I want your face in my eyes.
I want your hand in mine,
And I want your smell in my
Nose.

But most of all, I want our
Memories in my heart forever,
Being treasured, and remembered.
Polished, and growing. I can
Feel them in my heart always. And
I promise, I won’t let them go.

"I'm just me, trapped in a body."

Dear Peaceful_Dreamer,

Although we have to let go of the one who is no longer with us, we still have the beautiful memories which will stay in our hearts forever. A beautiful poem!

Love,
Patricia

For dreams are the tiny seeds from which tomorrow grows.'

I am assuming this is your mother you are missing.  That will never stop, but it gets easier.  Love, Joyce
