This post is dedicated to my son who passed away 17 years ago. I should have done this tribute last month but I didn't have the courage to do it. A couple of weeks later I thought that it is just for him to be remembered. Instead of photos, I thought of sharing some of the poems that have written through the years. Hopefully this helps some of the mothers out there who have a similar experience of losing a son too early.
No one can understand how much sadness we still feel
Without you in our life, we will never know how to deal
Each day we face our trouble and accept that it's real
You will always be in our hearts, no one can ever steal.
Maybe in time we can figure out what really went wrong,
There must be reason why you suddenly felt that strong
About your life's little struggle and you just cannot go on,
No one ever knew you you were hurting for so long.
It is so hard to believe that you've been gone for a year
Everyday we think of you and it always come with a tear
I try to cope with the pain, most times I live in fear
Knowing life is really short, keep loving those who are dear.
Everyone stays only time will heal, but the scars in our hearts, we all still feel.
A new year without you, we'll learn how to deal, you'll always be in our heart, no one can ever steal.
Three years have passed and I still miss, your laughter, your sons, and one goodbye kiss
Things you left behind bring some sort of bliss, life is not the same when you're just in the midst.
To my son on his 33rd birthday
Each year I wonder what you would have liked as your present
Maybe a new tech toy, a t-shirt or a bottle with a scent
Each year I wonder where you would go to celebrate it
Somewhere there's music, games, drinks and a bite to eat.
Each year I write a poem as my birthday gift to you
It helps me get through the day without you in the view.
Maybe you are truly in a place where everything is new
I hope you are happy today and not so alone and blue.
