Pain

Standard

Thursday 3rd March

The pain I feel hasn’t lessened
In fact, it’s much more intense.
You’re still my son
I keep on loving you.
That you’re not here, makes no sense.

Almost a year since you fell asleep
The pain is worse, to be truthful.
You’re still my son
I keep on loving you.
Realisation you’ll be forever youthful.

The numbness pains my heart
Every morning is like the one before.
You’re still my son
I keep on loving you.
But I’ll hear your voice no more.

Thinking that you’ll never grow old
No longer around to have fun.
You’re still my son
I keep on loving you.
The pain remains, my darling one.

I keep on loving you.
You’re still my son.

  1. Everytime I come here I feel that special kind of pain reading your words, admiring your resilience, but still wishing you had no reason to write this blog. It keeps me coming back. It teaches me that there is so much more in life I should pay attention to. Thank you for that.

  2. Very profound and very true – Time does NOT heal – it just teaches how to live with it. Well put – sad that it is so – but well put dear Mel. So sorry for your pain, but it is true that every day I read this it causes me pause to appreciate those in my life just a bit more. xo

  3. I’ve hesitated to say much because no two instances of grief are ever the same, but perhaps you might find something helpful on my secondary blog site. I honestly can’t remember if you’ve visited there before, and I’m too lazy to go back and check all the files, but if you haven’t already, you might check it out here:

    Welcome

    Best wishes, and sorry again for your loss.
