One Year Ago Today

one year ago today
came the hurt none could afford
the phone rang here to say
Mama's gone to the Lord
I wept tears that would never stop
wishing I could turn back time
yet only can I sit in darkness to hope
no one'll feel the pain like mine
but reality sunk in as I came to realise
that we were all hurting equally
but still I felt that all I heard were lies
of how they are coping perfectly
so now there's always a hole in our hearts
as she left that big missing jigsaw piece
despite the rough patch that left us in parts
now we look back to the day of disrupted peace
yet foolish like I still am today
wanting to turn and see her smile again
remembering clearly one year ago today
can i smile despite feeling the pain?
one year ago today
we felt sad
today
we feel sad
but
we remember, all the good times. and smile.
or do we?
Mama, I love you

Whenever you feel sad, juz think that she's in a place without ay worry. That's the purpose of living. To go back to the side of God.

That's a beautiful poem which actually rhymes! I think it's great. We all remember the date today, even though we remain quiet about it. I was hesitating over the phone just now not to mention and cause hurt to my mum.. but she herself mentioned. I miss Mama so much!
