Mother Death Poem

What I Want To Tell My Kids At My Last Moment

I wrote this poem for my kids to read after I pass. I don't want them to live their lives in grief after my death. I want them to be happy and enjoy every moment. To accept and move on.

When I Die

When I die
Let everyone know--- I did try
I tried to be my best
I tried to pass a test

I tried to play a role
Kept peace in my soul
I worked as hard as I can
I followed every plan
I gave what I couldn't afford
Now I am in peace -with my lord

When I die, I don't want you to Cry
I want you to play my favorite melody
Don't describe my life
or death as a tragedy
Say I miss you I'll understand
I will kiss you, from another land

When I die hold my kids so tight
Let them see the light
Let them grow and explore
Tell them, They are who I just adore

Tell them mom don't like tears
She won't accept your fears
Mom will always be there
Look up, see this glare
She is saying hello
She is saying let go
I love you more than you will ever know

Don't cry
I built this empire for you
Spread your wings , be true
Don't cry
I am here with you everyday
You don't see me, but I am there

Don't cry when I die
I have to rest in peace today
Don't cry when I say goodbye
Look up and for my soul just pray ..

This poem spoke to me as a mother. I felt deeply connected by how the author adores her children and how she does not want them to be stuck in grief after she passes away.
She wants her kids to remember her for giving her best and leaves a legacy of a roadmap of how they too can aspire to be their best.

So expressive, feelings of a merciful and passionate mother. A woman who thinks of her kids when she dies will never die. Such people are born to live for ever.
