Love Never Dies

Love Never Dies

Tonight, will be hard, tomorrow even worse
I’m sorry for your pain and cancers dreaded curse

Too young for death, one last traveled road
God, please give them strength to shoulder this load

You will see many paths, choose wisely which to take
Maybe you’ll get a visit, tonight before you wake

Hold your head high and be proud of your choice
Twenty-five years gone and I can still hear her voice

Do mothers really die?  Maybe, but not for me
She lives in my heart; when I look, I still see

A "Wonderful" write. Only the body will die. A mother's love never dies. She is waiting in heaven. Good memories are the best kind. Have a great/blessed day..............

Mark they may be gone from this life but I know they are never too far away from us. The only consolation for us left behind is the fact that they are in a better place without suffering. Tom
