21. Mothers Plea
- By Kelsy Marks
- Published by Family Friend Poems November 2008
I wrote think one day while watching the snow fall, I'm not a mother myself, but I think this poem is very true, seeing as I'm 13 with cancer.

The saddest for a mother to watch
is her daughter
watching the snow fall
through a cold window pane

The saddest for a mother to watch
is her daughter
watching the snow fall
through a cold window pane
Fogged by the breath of a sick little girl
pressing her face hard up against the glass.

Too sick to go outside;
but not too sick to ask
why god made something so pretty
that she couldn't play with.

22. One Wish
- By Lindsey N. Smith
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
A woman prays to God to heal her sick mother and make her pain and suffering go away.

Prayer For A Mother Who Is Sick

If I had one last wish to make it would have to be,
that God would heal my mom and give her pain to me.
For I've never seen my mom hurt so bad in all my life,
I'd do anything and everything to take her pain and strife.

If I had one last wish to make it would have to be,
that God would heal my mom and give her pain to me.
For I've never seen my mom hurt so bad in all my life,
I'd do anything and everything to take her pain and strife.
She's the only one who never lost complete faith in me,
without her here by my side I'm not sure where I'd be.
We didn't always get along but then again who does,
she taught me about the
Real world and what life really was.
I think I owe her one for all the hell I put her through,
so God if you can grant this wish for me I'll eternally be grateful to you.
And if my mom ever decides to ask why her life suddenly changed this way,
do me a favor and let her know that I said Happy late Mother's Day.

23. A Lost Memory
- By Marie Matheny
- Published by Family Friend Poems May 2018
This is a true story told to me by a friend about a time she visited her mother in a nursing home where her mother lived. She said it was the worst feeling in the world to have to live through. It was so heartbreaking that I couldn't forget it. At the time she told it, all I could do was cry.

Poem About Caring For A Parent With Alzheimer's

She lovingly handles
her mother with care
as she washes and curls
and fixes her hair.

She lovingly handles
her mother with care
as she washes and curls
and fixes her hair.

They laugh and talk
the hours away.
Then out of the blue,
her mother did say,

"You're so nice.
Now what is your name?"

24. Shell Of A Person I Once Knew
- By Juli Nielsen
- Published by Family Friend Poems August 2014
This poem is about losing someone without them being dead. My family has suffered a lot of loss. My father passed away suddenly in 2012 from congestive heart failure. Shortly thereafter my mother became quite ill and has never been the same. When we were growing up, my mother was extremely bubbly. She was a friend to everyone she met. She is extremely limited now. Due to her extreme illness, she does not talk much anymore. She does not communicate. She lies in her bed and listens to the TV all day long. She's no longer the mother I always knew and loved.

Poem About Losing A Mother While She Is Alive

You're the shell of the person I once knew.
When I talk, I know you can hear,
But I barely feel your spirit lingering near.

You're the shell of the person I once knew.
When I talk, I know you can hear,
But I barely feel your spirit lingering near.

You've given up... at least part way.
I can't help but envision the words that you'd say
If you weren't the shell of a person I once knew.

You express your love for me, but that's just it.
You'd rather I come and quietly sit.
I wish you were more than the shell of a person I once knew.

I love you with all of my heart and soul.
Sometimes I feel like I'm losing control
Because it's hard to see the shell of a person I once knew.

My heart hurts because I know you're aching.
Your body's there, but it's just the casing.
It's the shell of a person I once knew.

I don't want you to die; I'd be left here on earth,
But passing on brings peace and rebirth.
You'd be more than the shell of a person I once knew.

It's your choice in the end to fight or give up.
It's not our actions that define when or what...
Please be more than the shell of a person I once knew.

Release your spirit to Heavenly Father's grace.
Only then will you see his kind, smiling face.
No longer a shell of a person I once knew.

You'd be free from all the worldly limitations.
In heaven you'd be expressing exclamations,
Freed from the shell of a person I once knew.

You're not really the shell of a person I once knew;
You're my mother and I love you.
You're not a burden that I heavily have to bear;
You're strength, inspiration, and care.
You're kind and loving and all that I aspire to be.
It's selfish to want to keep you here close to me.

You get to choose how long you want to stay,
So I'll keep on coming every day.
I'll rub your feet and scratch your back,
Read you your line up and help you take a bath.

Mom, take your time, it's patience I'm learning.
I'm developing and my soul's constantly yearning.
Each lesson is coming... selflessness and humility.
You're who I want to be.

25. Gram
- By Sherry A. Mockler
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
Teetering on the brink of life and death, only God knows what is best.

On The Brink Of Death

When I see you lying there
Fighting for every breath
It makes me have to realize
How close you are to death

When I see you lying there
Fighting for every breath
It makes me have to realize
How close you are to death
When I see you lying there
And know the pain that you've been through
I wonder and I think
What is God going to do?
Will He send His Angels
To carry you away
To give your weary heart a rest
And take you to Gramps today?
Will He send a miracle
And give you back again?
God knows just what is best
You are in His Hands.

26. Stay Strong
- By Samantha
- Published by Family Friend Poems August 2008
I am 17 years old. I have been very sick for the last 7 years. I have something called NF1, it makes you very sick at times. I go to a lot of doctors, I have had brain surgery, I can't get out in the heat it makes me really sick. The bad thing about this is my older sister is 18 years old and she's has the same thing. She's always sick, but she loves to draw and can very well. We both are very sick, but the Lord blessed us with other things we can do. I write poems.....and she draws, and we both are living and have a great family...so what more could we ask for?

Staying Strong With Illness

I have this illness
that I've suffered from for so long
and I don't know how,
but I've got to find a way to stay strong,

I have this illness
that I've suffered from for so long
and I don't know how,
but I've got to find a way to stay strong,
I wish I could get over it really quick
because it's making me go insane
and it hurts when people pick
It just causes so much pain
I just wish I could stay strong
It really bothers me
because I don't know what's wrong
I'm telling myself not to cry
but it's so hard to try
there's got to be a way for me to stay strong

As the days go by
I feel worse and worse
so many things have gone wrong
and it's just so hard to stay strong
I've got to cry
so as the tears run down my eyes
I realized I don't have the strength
to stay strong

27. Fallen Soldier
- By Louisa W. Williams

Sickness ravages the body and challenges a person too fight back with all their heart and soul.

Cancer War

There are just a few things that can hit you so hard
That even years later you are left emotionally scarred....

There are just a few things that can hit you so hard
That even years later you are left emotionally scarred.
It is the word that makes me freeze,
When all I really want to do, I scream.
This thing that scares me so much is cancer.
But she is too tough, I was sure it couldn't get her.
This awful word has taken my family and friends
And leaves deep cuts I am afraid will never fully mend
But it doesn't make sense, she is such a strong woman
I looked up to her for standing by through thick and thin.
I tell my mother she can't be right
It couldn't get her, she would put up too big a fight.
They say there are fights you just can't win
But I know this woman, she will never give in.
This is the woman who wouldn't lay to rest
Until she felt her daughters did their best.
All I know is that she will win this fight
And until that day I will pray
for her heart every night.

28. In My Dreams
- By Mashudu Nemukula
- Published by Family Friend Poems August 2009
A poem about a person who is sick and nobody calls to check in.

Poem About Feeling Alone While Sick

Despite my health,
You opted not to call me
Just to know if I was alright.

Despite my health,
You opted not to call me
Just to know if I was alright.

When I gazed at myself,
Sleeping helplessly in much pain,
I wondered where your love, care and support were.

My eyes kept starring fixedly on my cell phone,
Thinking that it would ring,
And I would hear your healing voice.

Showers of tears began to flood from my red eyes
Onto my white pillows,
Until they were all wet.

My mind crawled on something very special,
Something that ever turned my heart around,
But nothing could conquer the flame of my burning heart.

Then I thought quickly,
That it's only when days are dark,
That friends are always few.

My heart never stopped pounding the whole night;
Until God had mercy on me,
And miraculously laid me to rest

29. My Father
- By Lizzette Cambron
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006
A boy watches his father in wallow in sickness. He is torn between his desire for his father to escape the pain, and his desire to continue to see his father live.

Dad's Illness

My father is ill
And fading away
Still here for a while
And a few more days...

My father is ill
And fading away
Still here for a while
And a few more days
I'm grateful he's here
Not a moment to spare
I love him so much
For him I care
I'm wishing he stays to see me wed
And see my first baby in its tiny bed
Him being gone I could not handle
Every night I would light him a beautiful candle
If he was to go
I'm happy to know
To fly away he would spread his wings
And listen as his guardian angel sings
I'll be happy to know he's in a better place
Even though I'll never forget his lovely face
A great father he is
No daddy is better
No one will ever be
No matter whoever
He is also very handsome
With his baby blue eyes
And his jet-black hair
It makes me cry
He has so many tubes and liquids to gain
I wish he would just go
And feel no more pain
In a way, I want him to stay
And hear him say,
' My sweet little daughter it will be okay'
If God wants him free
I'll need one last touch
He'll be in a better place
And I will miss him very much

30. Can He See Me?
- By Marian Shapcott
- Published by Family Friend Poems June 2011
My husband had a brain hemorrhage nine years ago that left him in a vegetative state. We have been married for forty one years. I go to see him every week, but he doesn't know me. Even though his eyes are open, he can't see and he can't move. He is in the royal hospital in Putney. He is in limbo and so am I. Life does go on, but it's not the same, and he will never get any better than he is now.

Waiting For Death Husband In A Vegetative State

Can he see me?
Can he hear me?
Does he know I'm there?
When I am standing at his bedside or sitting in a chair.

Can he see me?
Can he hear me?
Does he know I'm there?
When I am standing at his bedside or sitting in a chair.
My friends tell me to move on with my life,
but it is so hard
when I am still his wife.

31. Precious Boy

A little boy is sick in the hospital and his mother prays for his recovery.

His little eyes so sad,
His mouth turned in a frown....

His little eyes so sad,
His mouth turned in a frown.
Why does this little boy feel so bad?
What is causing him to be down?

His smile used to be so grand,
But now he hangs onto life by a strand.
He doesn't deserve this pain,
We all have the right to complain.

His mother stays by his side,
As the doctors remain to reside.
Please she cries, let him find a way out.
Erase our faces of this doubt.

This little boy is so precious,
His happiness is infectious.
His life will be so great,
He will overcome his fearful fate.

32. An Angel To Be
- By Sebrina E. Sedillo
- Published by Family Friend Poems February 2006

But every time I got too close to that...

My whole life has been like a maze,
There may have been a dead end where
I turned.
But every time I got too close to that
fire,
You'd help me from getting burned.
I think I took you for granted,
And now God has told you soon you have
to leave.
I told you I would change,
You don't know who to believe.
But my life is like a trampoline,
I reach a high point and then I fall.
It goes really really well,
And then comes the brick wall.
But I will give you something to be
proud of,
When you're watching from above.
All I have right now,
Is lots of care and lots of love.
I may have said, I hate you,
I didn't mean a word.
But you never believed me,
Only what you heard.
You pushed me away when I needed you most,
And that hurt me so bad.
I felt as if you didn't want me around,
It made me so sad.
Not seeing you now,
Is hard enough.
But knowing soon you'll be gone,
Mom it's really tough.
But I understand why,
God made it happen this way.
You're one of his beautiful angels,
He wants back one day.
He sent you here,
To light up this earth.
And to show your whole family,
What life is worth.
You showed me that life,
Could be a wonderful thing.
You told me what I should do,
And what it would bring.
I'll miss you while you're gone,
You'll never leave my heart.
And from now until then,
I promise, you're missed when we're
apart.
LOVE YOU MOM

Do you remember when we used to play?
Or when we used to sit and talk all day?
I don't know what I'll do without you, or if I will ever get by.
Everybody tells me its going to happen sooner
or later I don't want to have to say good-bye.
I know that you will be a lot happier and a lot less confused,
But when it comes time for me to say my last good-bye, I will think to myself and remember that god has a plan and everything will work out in the end.
I just want you to know that I will love you forever and always.

This poem basically tells the story. I have been to 4 different sets of doctors and now I'm going to my 5th. They don't really know what's wrong with me, but thats okay. I know they will. That is my one hope. Thanks to all my friends and my family for being there for me. I LOVE YOU GUYS!

You try to understand
But I don't want you to
I don't think you can comprehend
The pain that I go through....

You try to understand
But I don't want you to
I don't think you can comprehend
The pain that I go through.

I never get to sleep
Because I cry all night
The doctors don't know what it is
Or what's wrong with my sight.

The pain's almost unbearable
Like a thousand stabbing knives
And when my skin gets wet
My body's covered in hives.

I wish that I could show you
How it hurts to breathe or move
But I know that it's not possible
So this I cannot prove.

The touch of skin or fabric
I want to scream out loud
But I know I won't do so
Cause the sound drowns in the crowd.

What's that you say
I can't hear you
Speak up please
It's my hearing too.

My muscles freeze
My joints lock
I am scared
I cannot walk.

I lay in bed
Do nothing all day
My mom brings my food up
On a tray.

I chew my food
My mouth needs to soak
I sip my water
I start to choke.

I'm scared to think
What happens next
Cause the situation
Is too complex.

36. In My Heart
- By Linda M. Capp
- Published by Family Friend Poems May 2009
This is a poem about my mother who has been in a persistent vegetative state for 19 years. There is an almost no chance that she will ever awake from this, so my life has been very hard considering she got sick when I was just about 7 years old and my older sister was my mother figure. She also named me after her and she named me right because everywhere I go they say I look just like her. They say what doesn't make you weak will make you strong. I try to believe in this

You know I Love You, you know I do.
I just wish you could talk to me like I talk to you.
I know how hard you try to speak,
but those brain cells you lost made your body so weak....

You know I Love You, you know I do.
I just wish you could talk to me like I talk to you.
I know how hard you try to speak,
but those brain cells you lost made your body so weak.
I know you hear me and I hear you too,
Above the stars and even the Moon.
I hear you in my heart and even in my soul
and I'll always make sure you have your radio.
You loved to sing, you loved to dance
and hopefully you'll have that 2nd Chance.
I know your strong but still too weak,
My Dear Mother Please Don't Weep.
I hear you when I'm down more than any time,
your saying "Linda, pick yourself up and hold your head up tall."
I try so hard to live my life,
but without you in my life it's hard I'd have to say.
Mom I remember so much of you that it hurts to even say,
but at least I have those few memories that I know will always stay.

37. Hush-A-By Baby, Don't Cry
- By Beatrice Alesana-Rennie
- Published by Family Friend Poems October 2009
This poem is dedicated to my little brother who has been very sick since the day he was born but he knows how to 'keep moving forward.'

Sister About Her Sick Little Brother

He grows everyday
And thinks 'never die'
Life he will live his way
Hush-a-by baby, don't cry...

He grows everyday
And thinks 'never die'
Life he will live his way
Hush-a-by baby, don't cry

Even though he's discriminated
He never asks why
He doesn't show he's intimidated
Hush-a-by baby, don't cry

The doctor's say he has limited time
And as the years pass him by
He becomes a relentless dime
Hush-a-by baby, don't cry

And as the sickness spreads
He doesn't whine or sigh
He isn't full of dread
Hush-a-by baby, don't cry

So the family, they prepare
But they put on a mask and lie
For maybe, maybe it will disappear
Hush-a-by baby, don't cry

And he says, now's my cue
Don't cry, for I'll be in the sky
Always watching over you
Hush-a-by baby, don't cry

I cry myself to sleep at night
Trying not to ask God why
I have false hope is what I've heard
Rather than that don't say a word
My faith is in God
That is where I stand
We gave her to him
She's now in his hands
How do I cope with what I am going through?
Let me ask you this, what else can I do?
I can only play the hand life deals
I just can't imagine how Angel feels
Should I give up and let her go?
As long as there's hope I say NO
Some people say It's all meant to be
An innocent child, I don't agree
You can tell sometimes she really feels bad
But through out it all she's hardly ever sad
She has a great smile that lights up your day
For a moment or two my fears fade away
Do I wonder what life holds in store?
No..I just pray for another day more!

I wrote this poem after I was told that I have cancer. I hope the poem will give strength and hope to those who have been stricken with this terrible condition. My prayers are with each and every one of them. God bless us all.

Courage While Diagnosed With Cancer

It started out a nice day,
Warm, sunny, and bright.
But then something happened
That turned the day into night.

It started out a nice day,
Warm, sunny, and bright.
But then something happened
That turned the day into night.

The tests are done and over,
And all the results are in.
Now I only have to wait
To see if I lose or win.

I'm sure it won't be long now
Before the answers are heard.
It's just a matter of time
Before I'm given the word.

He's coming into my room,
In his smock so snowy white.
Will this bright sunny day
Become a dark, dreary night?

I could see it in his face.
He had no reason to speak.
I just prayed that when he did
I'd be strong instead of weak.

"You have got cancer," he said,
"And it's not good, it's stage four."
"I'll leave you alone for now,"
Then turned and went out the door.

An awful thing, this cancer.
It takes your strength and might
And as much as you want to,
You've got no power to fight.

Yes, my day did turn to night.
My greatest fear just came true.
How much time do I have left
Before my whole life is through?

Will I have time to do things
Before I reach my last day?
Or will the good Lord above
Want to take me right away?

What about my family?
How will they get on with life?
Will my children be okay?
What will happen to my wife?

I'll fight to the very end,
Hang on as long as I can.
I won't give up that easy.
To the end I'll be a man.

It's going to be real hard,
But I will fight all the way
To turn that dark, dreary night
Back to a bright, sunny day.
