Thursday 2nd June

I hold you in my memory
I find you in my dreams.

Flying high, twinkling bright
Soaring on your wings.

My perfect, shining star
My dearest, beloved Angel.

To the moon and back again
I’ll love you forevermore.

Gone too soon, but now at peace
Precious lad, forever young.

This afternoon on the harbour

Wednesday 1st June

Standing beside you
Quietly whispering
I love you, I miss you
Comforts me, for a while
Alleviates the pain, briefly.

Looking at your photograph
I blow you a kiss
I love you, I miss you
I smile at your face
Or cry… Or both.

Tucked safe within my heart
I know you’re with me
I love you, I miss you
My Angel up in heaven
Only a thought away.

August 2013, Harbour Town, Hilton Head Island. A tree swing, a smile, a Star Trek book. Perfect

A warm glow at the end of the day

Monday 30th May

Someday soon, I know there’ll be
A few more smiles than tears.
It’s what people keep telling me
But I know it’ll probably be years.

A few more years for the pain lessen
The hurt in my heart to ease.
A little time to end the depression
But I know there’s no guarantees.

I’m trying hard to remember you
And all the happy times we had.
The laughter and the good times too
So many memories to make me glad.

I treasure each and every moment
I remember your individuality.
Fun, adventures and enchantment
Such a kind and caring personality.

Love you forever
To the moon and back
Beloved Angel son.

Evening light in the harbour

Just before sunset

Sunday 29th May

Time passes, slowly
Seconds, minutes, hours
Days, weeks, months.

Actually, it’s been
Over a year
Since you left us.

Four hundred
And forty four days,
To be exact.

And yet it seems
Like only yesterday
You were here.

But you’re not here
You’re there
Flying with Angel wings.

And I miss you
Every single day
I always will.

But I’ll keep on
Loving you
With all my heart.

I’ll remember you
And talk of you
Until I see you again.

My darling son
Precious young man
Now in heaven.

Friday 27th May

Just letting you know
I love you so
I miss you too
I think about you.

Every day, all day
That’s where you stay
Forever in my heart
So we’re never apart.

Sweetheart

Thursday 26th May

You were here
And we loved you
Unconditionally.

Now you’ve gone
Our hearts are
Irreparably broken.

That you were here
Means our hearts
Overflow with love.

Such a legacy
Of an amazing life
Shared with us all.

Love you forever
Sweetheart
Dearest Angel son.

(It’s been
Sixty three weeks
Since that evening.)

Wednesday 25th May

Flying high my sweetheart
Leaving Angel dust sparkles
Wherever your wings take you.

Sunbeams and shards of light
Finding a way through the leaves
Dappling, dancing with shadows.

In all the sunsets and sunrises
When the stars shine so brightly
That’s when I know you’re there.

Love you forever
My precious Starman
Beloved Angel son.

Morning coffee and a view of the harbour

Tuesday 24th May

Grief
A silence that screams so loudly
A pain that hurts so invisibly
An existence that is so lonely
An emotion that confuses so easily
A realisation that hits so tragically
Grief
An emptiness that can’t be filled
A reality that is forever damaged
A question that can’t be answered
A loss that won’t be replaced
Grief
A missing that will be eternal
A broken heart that can’t be fixed
A future that now will never be
A journey that takes a new path
Grief
A love that is everlasting
A life that won’t be forgotten
An Angel that is my son.

Love you sweetheart.
