Jed
You havent gone.
You are here.
Safe in my heart.
................................................
Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon.
They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints on our hearts
And we are never, ever the same.
...............................................
Nobody is gone unless you want them to go
If you dont want them to go....
Then they will be with you forever.
...............................................
Often it’s the little things, I really want to share
That make me wish that you were here, instead of being there
When something funny makes me laugh I always think of you
Because I know if you were here that you’d be laughing too
Although we can’t be together, with you and me I find
That though you may be out of sight you’re never out of mind
So don’t forget how much you’re missed though death keeps us apart
Because although I cannot see you...
I can feel you in my heart
.................................................
I'll sit here and pretend he will come back
Even though I know he won't,
But only for a little while.
I'll sit here and cry,
And remember the day he died,
But only for a little while.
But then a little while,
Turns into a long time.
But why sit here and cry,
Because he died,
When I could smile,
Because he lived?
...........................................

...........................................
The want of you is like no other thing;
It smites my soul with a sudden sickening;
It binds my being with a wreath of rue--
This want of you.
It flashes upon me like the waking sun;
It creeps from behind me when the day is done;
It hammers my heart the long night through--
This want of you.
It sighs within me like the misting skies;
Oh, all the day within my heart it cries,
Old as your absence, yet each moment new--
This want of you.
Mad with demand and aching with despair,
It leaps within my heart, and you are-- where?
Has God forgotten? Or He never knew...
This want of you.
...................................................
Grief.....The ache that never leaves.
This kind of loss is one in which the pain never truly goes away ….
Tucked away in a corner somewhere in the deep recesses of the heart.
There it remains at a constant low level ache.
There may be times when a sight, a smell, a place, a song, an anniversary or birthday will trigger the old memories and the intensity of the grief and loss will return again.
These feelings often arrive without warning and can be just as painful making one feel as though she was experiencing the loss anew.
..................................................
Grief.....Is a tidal wave that over takes you,
smashes down upon you with unimaginable force,
sweeps you up into its darkness,
where you tumble and crash against unidentifiable surfaces,
only to be thrown out on an unknown beach, bruised, reshaped...
Grief.... will make a different person out of you.
..................................................
I look at your photograph and see your smile.
As I feel your presence anew, I am filled with warmth and my heart remembers love.
I remember who you used to be, the laughter we shared
and wonder what you have become.
Where are you now, where did you go when the body was left behind and the spirit was released to fly?
I miss your being but I feel your presence,
Your spirit has become for me a guardian angel on high guiding, and watching over me.
I remember you... you are with me... I am not afraid.
.....................................................
When you feel a gentle breeze
Caress you when you sigh
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From a loved one way up high.
If a soft and tender raindrop
Lands upon your nose
They've added a small kiss
As fragile as a rose.
If a song you hear fills you
With a feeling of sweet love
It's a hug sent from Heaven
From someone special up above.
If you awaken in the morning
To a bluebird's chirping song
It's music sent from Heaven
To cheer you all day long.
If tiny little snowflakes
Land upon your face
It's a hug sent from Heaven
Trimmed with Angel lace.
So keep the joy in your heart
If you're lonely my dear friend
Hugs that are sent from Heaven
A broken heart will mend.

Remembering
“Remmebering is hard, but I love it so, becuase it brings me memories of you.
Loved by so many, this is a tribute to your memory.
When we played kiddy karate, and fought off enemies in the games, we laughed together every day. I kissed your forhead one last time, and said goodbye to you for a time.
Years go by, but nothings' changed. Unexpected as it was, it happened that day, and I'll never forget it till the end of my days.
Our years we spent together were few, but none of those were wasted as I love you.
Together forever, no matter what, I will always be your little boy who never forgot...
...what a caring daddy you truly were.
I'll hug you now, forever more, before I go to sleep sore. The pain is there, as it always will, but it is eased when I remember you.
So now I give you a kiss on thy head, and send you off to your eternal bed...”
Sleep well, Dad x
Heaven's Bed
Up in heaven you are today, so very far away. Remember you we do, no matter how sad we are about you.
Years may have ticked by as they must, but we remember you as if you were still here with us.
As you lay in your eternal bed, the clouds whisper to you the things we've said.
How we miss you today, tomorrow and the next day - you are a million or so miles away. Still we are sad, but glad as we remember you, which we do.
Stay in your bed, don't get up, for we are going to be there soon enough. Stay asleep for now, as we'll one day be and join you in your brilliant angel's sea.
See you soon in rays of light, they are so bright. Taking us to you they are, you are waiting for us by the brightest star.
"Hello," we say, as you stand from your bed. Miss you we did, but no longer, we said. Together again, we all go to rest in the clouds above, knowing we are forever wrapped in your eternal love.
xxx Love you, Dad xxx
song by Dixie Chicks
They didn't have you where I come from
Never knew the best was yet to come
Life began when I saw your face
And I hear your laugh like a serenade
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up
I slip in bed when you're asleep
To hold you close and feel your breath on me
Tomorrow there'll be so much to do
So tonight I'll drift in a dream with you
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up
As you wander through this troubled world
In search of all things beautiful
You can close your eyes when you're miles away
And hear my voice like a serenade
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough, is forever enough
How long do you want to be loved
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up
Is forever enough
Cause I'm never, never giving you up
Don't leave him alone on his birthday
If Roses grow in Heaven Lord,
please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Jed's arms
and tell him they are from me
Tell him that I love him
and when he turns to smile,
place a kiss upon his cheek
and hold him for awhile
Please , Don't leave him alone on his birthday
The Invisible Chain
Gone, you are, forever more,
I wish I didn't have to be sore anymore.
Please come back and hug your family tight,
And stay with us till end of night.
Remembering you should not hurt,
But all Laura has is your shirt.
The memories run too deep,
Knowing you'll forever sleep.
Wrap your wings up tight and sleep on through the night,
As we'll be there by mornings first light.
Remember you we shall,
Even if there's no smiles now.
A suns and moons pass us by,
We wish with a sigh
That we could be with you nigh.
Among the stars above you dwell,
In a loving place of soothing bell.
Ribbons of light form wings on your back,
Slowly bringing you back to our large, old flat.
We see you standing there,
Ready to take us with you into the air.
Holding us so tight, we know it's so right.
As loving father and husband return,
We have something to learn.
Though our cries and moans,
We learn that were never truly alone.
With us forever has he been,
As the invisible chain of love is seen.
As clouds and moons pass us by,
We let our tears run dry.
Among the stars that gleam,
We are living our dream:
Finally we are together,
But now its forever.
Everlasting Light
Although you’re gone, you are never forgotten.
We will never forget the warmth and love you shared with us in our lives.
Short it was, I know, but bitter-sweet,
Because we know that you are up there,
In the clouds of everlasting light,
Waiting to come and collect us when the time is right.
As the clouds part, we see your smiling face
And wish you could have been here for all the time we misplaced.
It's been so long since we saw you in person
And although the tears may sting
Away my fears are taken as you reach out and take our hand
To lead us into the angels land.
Finally together,
Not a moment too soon,
You reach out and hug your family
For the first time in a-hundred moons.
Hugging so tight,
We know it so right,
Bound together in your eternal light...
Calling All Angels
Santa Maria, Santa Teresa, Santa Anna, Santa Susannah
Santa Cecilia, Santa Copelia, Santa Dominica, Mary Angelica
Frater Ached, Frater Pietro, Julianus, Petronilla
Santa, Santos, Miroslaw, Vladimir
And all the rest
A man is placed upon the steps, a baby cries, high above you can hear the church bells start to ring
The heaviness the heaviness oh it settles in somewhere you hear a mother sing
Then it's one foot then the other as you step out on the road, step out on the road
How much weight? How much weight?
Then it's how long? And how far? And how many times, oh before it's too late?
Calling all angels calling all angels walk me through this world don't leave me alone
Calling all angels calling all angels we're trying’ we’re hoping but we're not sure how...
And every day you gaze upon the sunset with such love and intensity
Why ...it's almost as if, if you could only crack the code
You’d finally understand what this all means
Ah, but if you could...do you think you would trade in all, all the pain and suffering?
Ah, but then you would have missed the beauty of the light upon this earth
And the sweetness of the leaving
Calling all angels calling all angels
Walk me through this world don't leave me alone
Calling’ all angels calling' all angels
We’re trying we're hoping, but we're not sure
Calling all angels calling all angels
(Calling all angels) (Calling all angels)
Walk me through this world (walk me through this world)
Don’t leave me alone
Calling all angels calling all angels
We’re trying, we’re hoping,
We’re hurting We’re loving'
We’re crying'
"How Do I Live Without You"
How do I get through one night without you
If I had to live without you
What kind of life would that be
Oh I, I need you in my arms
Need you to hold
You're my world, my heart, my soul
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything good in my life
And tell me now
How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I
How do I
Oh, how do I live
Without you, there'd be no sun in my sky
There would be no love in my life
There'd be no world left for me
And I, oh Baby, I don't know what I would do
I'd be lost if I lost you
I
f you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything real in my life
And tell me now
How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I
How do I
Oh, how do I live
Please tell me baby
How do I go on
If you ever leave
Baby you would take away everything
Need you with me
Baby don't you know that you're everything good in my life
And tell me now
How do I live without you
I want to know
How do I breathe without you
If you ever go
How do I ever, ever survive
How do I
How do I
Oh, how do I live
how do I live without you
how do I live without you baby
how do I live....
