sending thoughts out upon high
hear me God, my Father
with sighs I say my prayers
a whisper and a calm
beautiful stillness in the chaos
I'm neither here nor there
things have slowed down and I pause
to reflect on your smile and the day you were born
memories of your laughter and outrageous personality
you burn so bright it couldn't last forever
quietly I look through the past
asking God did you know when he was born
I would only get so many days with him
he touched my life and others
it's a heavy emptiness knowing he's not here anymore
we all feel it
none of us believed he would pass
your body gave out and we saw you take your last breath
my soul holds tight to yours
there is a space in me no one else can fill
stillness of being I am sad

Brenda, I cannot imagine the pain you’re going through. Losing a parent is nothing compared to losing a child. My heart and prayers with you. You can do him justice now for holding onto all the memories and writing about them. I hope that helps a lil’.

Crimsin, sorry for your loss. It is assumed that a parent precedes a child in death. A child will always grieve for a parent that passes. However, the loss of a child is something totally different; something, I know I cannot find words to describe or express such. All emotions and feelings originate from within the heart, and it is also where special moments and memories reside. It is where we reconcile the meaning of love. I dedicate to you a song; “Oh Love” by Brad Paisley and Carrie Underwood, in memory of your son. “Strong, like a mother holds her child”; may you find comfort in the special moments and memories you hold dear in your heart. May God bless you and your family. Respectfully, Angel Louise
