Do you think?.............
Do you think that I am over it
Better than before
Maybe I've forgotten
Doesn't hurt me anymore?
♥
Do you think that I am doing fine
No tears are shed each day
Get up and just get going
Pain has all but gone away?
♥
Do you think that I am coping
Living life just as you do
If that's what you imagine...
You don't have a single clue.
♥
I cope, I cry, and I deny
I've learned how I must hide
Keep everything within me
Bottled up deep down inside.
♥
I can't be who I was before
I've changed I'm someone new
It happens when you have a loss
You would be different too.
♥
I'm so misunderstood each day
To tired to explain
Not over it, or better
Simply put... I'm not the same.
♥
And will never be because you left me.

The Lord needed a flower
and that flower was you
so he picked you up from down here
and up and up you flew
He planted you in his garden
he said 'You'll stay here now with me'
and there you'll stay away from harm
the prettiest flower you'll always be
goodnight angel sweet dreams
love always tracey xxxx
When Tomorrow Starts Without Me
by Sarina Blaschko (edit by Deanna Heisdorffer)
When tomorrow starts without me,
And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes filled with tears for me,
I wish so much you wouldn't cry
The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things,
We didn't get to say.
I know how much you love me,
As much as I love you,
and each time you think of me:
I know you'll miss me too.
But when tomorrow starts without me,
Please try to understand,
That an angel came and called my name,
And took me by the hand. And said my place was ready,
In heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind
All those I dearly love. But as I turned to walk away,
A tear fell from my eye,
For all my life, I'd always thought
I didn't want to die. I had so much to live for,
So much yet to do,
It seemed almost impossible,
That I was leaving all of you. I thought of all the yesterdays,
The good ones and the bad.
I thought of all the love we shared,
And all the fun we had. If I could relive yesterday,
Just even for a while,
I'd say good-bye and kiss you
And maybe see you smile. But then I fully realized,
That this could never be,
For emptiness and memories,
Would take the place of me.
And when I thought of worldly things,
I might miss, come tomorrow,
I thought of you, and when I did,
My heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through heaven's gates,
I felt so alone.
But then I saw great grandpa
And that made me feel more at home.
I took a glance behind me and saw my family come through.
I didn't know what to say,
or even what to do.
I just stood there staring at them and said, "This is your home Too?"
What the hell is going on and is this really true?
God, could you answer all my questions please,
before I turn blue?
When God looked down and smiled at me,
From his great golden throne,
He said, "This is eternity,
and all I've promised you.
Today for life on earth is past,
But here it starts anew.
I promise no tomorrow,
But today will always last.
And since each day's the same day
There's no longing for the past.
But you've been so faithful,
So trusting and so true.
Though there were times you did some things
You knew you shouldn't do.
And just to let you know,
I am saying this to each and every one of you!
But you have been forgiven
and now at last you're free.
So won't you take my hand?
And share your life with me?"
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart.
For everytime you think of me,
I'm right here in your heart.
Thinking of you
I spoke with your mom tonight and found out of Tatum's passing. We are so sorry. She is so beautiful. We, too, have experienced pain of losing a child, and want you to know that if you need to talk or anything at all, we are here for you.

EVERY PARENTS DREAD

We all grieve at some time in our life,
Maybe it’s for a parent, grandparent, a husband or wife,
Our hearts are filled with much sorrow and pain,
Life is unfair, and nothing seems the same.
It could be a sister or a brother too,
Or even a friend who is close to you,
Memories of your loved one are so new and so clear,
You dream of the day you can hold them near.
You live your life with good days and bad,
Some of them happy, some of them sad,
You think of the good times and remember with love,
Your dear departed loved one up in heaven above.
Then comes the grief that is impossible to bear,
It’s the loss of a child, which we can’t compare,
You don’t know where to go for the comfort you yearn,
The only comfort for you , is for your Child's safe return.
For these parents time does not heal,
They live a life that is not real
Their hearts are empty!!! Yet they feel like lead,
They have been given the news of every parents dread.
They have been told their child has gone,
Please don’t tell them they must move on.

LOSING SOMEONE YOU LOVE
Losing someone you love is pretty tough
It makes your smooth road rough
It's so hard it may sometimes make you mad
it leaves like a sad little lad.
Sorry to say but some people's heart are like clay
that is what makes our loved ones go away.
"Them people really have to pay for what they did to me today!"
I miss them a great deal, so much that my tears could fill a field.
On special days we miss their ways such as when they prepare delicious trays.
When I have to let you go and I express my feelings to other they just say "So!"
Then I am left like a fruit now bearing on a tree On my knees calling out to thee!
HAPPY EASTER TATUM,XXX

THE TINY BUNNY
() ()
('.')
(')_(')
The tiny bunny
Is working all day long
Decorating Easter eggs
While humming a song
He is having so much fun
Making eggs for you and me
And small chocolate bunnies
That he gives away free
But when he is finished
He'll bring them your way
In a big coloured basket
Upon Easter day
Have a lovely Easter weekend Angelxxx

song by MANDISA
All you saw was pain
All you saw was rain
But you should see me now
Moments filled with tears
Lasted all those years
Disappeared somehow
You never said goodbye
On your knees you cry
You’re still asking why, but
Blue has never been bluer
True has never been truer
Honey never tasted so sweet
There’s a song in the breeze
A million voices in praise
A rose has never smelled redder
The sun has never been brighter
If I could find the right words to say
If you could look at my face
If you could just see this place
You wouldn’t cry for me today
What you think you see
Isn’t really me
I’m already home
You’ve got to lay it down
‘Cause Jesus holds me now
And I am not alone
Your faith is wearing thin
But I am watching Him
And He’s holding you too, and
Chorus
What may seem like years will just be a moment
Oh, the day will come when I’ll show you where you’re going
I can’t wait to show you that
The Dash Poem
I read of a man who stood to speak
At the funeral of a friend
He referred to the dates on her tombstone
From the beginning to the end.
He noted that first came the date of her birth
And spoke of the following date with tears,
But he said what mattered most of all
Was the dash between those years.
For the dash represents all the time
That she spent alive on earth
And now only those who loved her
Know what that little line is worth
For what matters not, how much we own,
The cars, the house, the cash,
What matters is how we live and love
And how we spend our dash.
So think about this long and hard;
Are there things you’d like to change?
For you never know how much time is left
That can still be rearranged.
If we could just slow down enough
To consider what ‘s true and real
And always try to understand
The way other people feel.
And be less quick to anger
And show appreciation more
And love the people in our lives
Like we’ve never loved before.
If we treat each other with respect
And more often wear a smile,
Remembering that this special dash
Might only last a while.
So when your eulogy is being read
With your life’s actions to rehash
Would you be proud of the things they say
About how you spent your dash?
