Mom, Where Have You Gone?

©

Published by Family Friend Poems April 2011 with permission of the Author.

I will never again
see your smiling face.
I will never again
feel your warm embrace.

I cry everyday
Wishing you'd come back.
Life just isn't the same
With the Mother I lack.

"I miss you mom,
Where have you gone?"
My days alone,
Just seem to long

I Scream and yell in anger
Wondering why your not here
I scream and yell in Sadness
Wishing you were near..

Somedays I feel
I can't handle the Pain
Somedays I cry knowing
That I'll never see your face again.

I looked up to the sky
and screamed ''Why Lord! Why!"
and as I fell to the ground
all I could do is cry..

Maybe God put you there
for a reason.
Maybe so I can see you
In every Season

Maybe Life Isn't so bad
with you gone.
Maybe you've been
With Me all Along

I miss you mom,
Where have you gone?
My days alone, are still too long..

That was so touching. I lost my grandmother when I was 8. So I understand how you feel. I can't imagine losing my mother. So I can't imagine how you must feel about that.

I am 17 years old, and I lost my mother when I was 14 due to breast cancer. It's been a rough couple of years, so I know exactly what it is like to lose someone so close to you. I am sorry for your loss and even though I know that it has been about seven years since you published this poem, I know that the pain never fully goes away. This poem touched me very deeply, so I would like to thank you for that, and I hope that your life has progressed in a positive way.

This brought tears to my eyes. I'm only 14, and I lost my mom when I was 12, right before my 13th birthday. Thank you for writing this. I can relate to this so much. Also, I'm so sorry for your loss.

I feel that because my mom died when I was 6, and I missed her ever since I found out.
