Loss Poem
I am 24 years old. I lost my dad to heart disease when I was 18. I lost my mom to breast cancer last year. I wrote this to be published for the first anniversary of her death. It is short and to the point. To me, it is raw! Words cannot express the void that I possess because my mom is gone. The pain is absolutely horrible!!!
Words Can't Explain How Much I Miss You!!!

I don’t think that you ever imagined how much pain I would be in once you were gone,
Because if you had; you wouldn’t have left me.
Words cannot express the amount of emotions that have come with trying to let you go.
Every day has been a struggle.
Its been a year and its still hard for me to grasp that your really gone.
Sometimes, still, I don’t know what to do with myself.
There have been days that I haven’t wanted to get out of bed,
And days that if I allowed myself, I could cry and cry and cry.
A year later and I still sit and stare at your pictures,
Sometimes I sleep with them by my side.
I miss your voice.
I miss your smile,
Your eyes, your touch
Your smell, your phone calls
And your comforting ways.
Until I see you and dad again,
I am always missing you both so incredibly much!

I said goodbye to you today, little cat. Fingers caught on bones when I stroked your fur. You could scarcely raise your head to drink, yet still you calmed me with your purr.
Were you comfortable curled on the rug? And did you know your time drew near? Your wide green eyes held gentle love, and quiet pain, but showed no fear.
You slipped away so quietly that we weren't sure that you were gone. Our bouncy little cat is stilled but your spirit lingers on.
Little ghostcat, where are you? Are you happy, are you strong? I feel your warmth, your life, your love and still can hear your purring song.
