I just wanted to say that this is such an emotional piece, one that i had trouble finishing if im honest...i too have lost people so close and i wanted to thank you for sharing.

Take Care

This is very difficult for me to comment on... You love her so much, very close with her. I know this... Losing your Mother has brought you so much pain, and it breaks my heart.. She is with you... You know this.. She is a spirited beauty, as she was in life.. Her eyes had a sparkle and you have her eyes Ang- Keep that sparkle alive... I love you <3

This is a very personal and heart felt poem & one that I know must have been very hard to share. The pain never goes away but life does get easier. Don't let anybody rush your grief. Beautiful piece x

Although this poem is filled with grief, it has such beauty of remembrance as its main structure, which makes it more touching, rather than "sad" to read. The author has reminded us that when we lose someone so very close to us, we have to keep their memories alive, in order to remember them, and feel them. I think the author done such a realistic job with this subject, and to take such a small memory, and make it so big, again goes to show what we really miss when we lose someone. We never remember the material things, or money, it is the times we spent with them, and this poem emphasises this point greatly, and so movingly!

Ah Angie, this is beautiful! I can't even say anything more!! Seriously a beautiful and touching write!!!

That's beautiful, in my mother's last years she moved in with us, she struggled with emphysema and depression. I still feel a part of me is missing and that was 13 years ago.
