Poem -
WAKE.
sleep then if you must son
I can follow you no more
the gods have blocked the
pathways
I cannot pass the door
so,
I bow before locked doorways
remeber you as were
I do not quarrel with your god
I have the will no more
I ask
but for one favour, ask
where it is you'll wake
that I may follow in your footprints
when earth I too forsake.

My dear Marion,
Your poem is extremely beautiful, your son is with you eternally, I know how hard it is every single day. The pain will never leave but one day the peace will arrive, I promise and then you will feel only the many memories that will bring you a smile. There is no time limit for grief. I'm sending so many hugs to you, and I felt every last word. Relatable 100% . 🌹
Bless you love...thankyou. I should like to tell you though that I do not write for sympathy or anything like that...writing is a release for me. Its been 3 years now and I still and always will feel the need to write. But there will never be peace or acceptance, mothers never stop looking over their shoulder for the lost one. It's just not possible. That's just how it is.
A fact of life...and death for everyone, but I really value your comforting words.

hugs!
Hey Jim...how are you? Thankyou, did you find Jill? x
Sends chills down into my bones into my heart and my soul. Your love brings us to love him too.
You know what? I've read and re read this poem lots and lots and then some more. What strikes me more than anything reading this is the overwhelming grief. It feels like, at least it does to me, that brief moment in time when you have cried and cried and screamed and cried so that all the tears have dried up and you come back down to reality with a massive thud. So hard that you are numb. The sudden crash to stop. The overbearing silence.
Until the next time. Because the tears fill the reservoir once again, as they always do, and that you know, at some point, those relentless tears will fall again.
I don't know what to say except ... wow! As always I send you my love xx
Aw dear Tina. What can I say, you have read it from a place of deep grief that you too have felt. Life is full of it...for everyone, in different forms, in varying depths....but by god when the order makes no sense neither anymore does the universe. And when the universe makes no sense neither does anything in it. Always, every moment...he stands behind my shoulder...not there.
I know I will always write about it and never reach peace and maybe some would say oh shut up. To those I say...don't read....I write for my sanity. But I truly appreciate that you have taken the time to read my continually miserable writes lol. Lots of love to you and yours you lovely soul 💕
I love your writing!
