Mother Death Poem

Mom Passed Away Giving Birth

My mom passed away when I was 8 years old. I'm now 15. She passed giving birth. I miss her so much. I didn't get a goodbye or a final I love you. I would do anything to bring her back. The last time I heard her voice was over the phone. I had no clue that was the last time I would hear from her. R.I.P Mom

Dear Mama

Sitting here listening to music, you're the first person that comes to mind.
When I sit here and think about you, it hurts every time.
Sometimes I pinch myself and hope you come back,
But you leaving me was something as serious as a heart attack.
I wish all this was a nightmare,
Because the pain is something I can't bear.
It's still hard to believe that when I wake up you aren't here,
And while thinking about that I sometimes drop a tear.
People keep telling me I should be getting over you,
But the way your death affected me is something I can't undo.
When you left it felt like I was alone,
And the last time I heard from you was over the phone.
It's just not the same without you here.
You were the only person I held dear.
I never thought you would leave,
But that was only a thought, so all I do is grieve.
I always tell myself that one day you will come back to me,
But as much as I hope and dream, that's something that can't be.
You would be here with me if it were my choice.
When the wind blows I always hear your voice.
Please hurry up and come back because I think I'm gonna blow,
And when you come back, I promise I won't let go...

My mom died unexpectedly on April 14th 2016. 9 days before my 20th birthday, and my daughter, her first grandbaby was 6 months old. She was my best friend, I told her everything and talked to her on the phone every single day, I lived 21 hours away and moved when my daughter was a month old. I was supposed to visit her in July. We found out she died of pneumonia. She was 41 years old. I struggle with her death every day, and I talked to her the night before she died, and I'll at least always know the last thing I told her was I love you.

It's been a year and a half since I lost my mother, she had kidney disease and ever since I lost her my life hasn't been the same. We were really close, we would go everywhere together. Every time I hear a sad song I start to cry. It breaks my heart not seeing or hearing her voice anymore, I miss her every day. I wish she was still here with me.

It happened to me. I feel the same. 3 weeks and gone with no goodbye. Heartbroken.
