Siobhan Kenny Poet Verse

Mom

These words are imprinted 
in my heart and soul
For you were my sunset 
My smile that glows

You showed me love 
And would wipe away my tears 
You were my world Mom 
But now your not here

I feel all alone when
You took your last breath 
Holding you in my arms 
I knew you had passed 

But every day since
I've kept looking for you 
Hoping this is a bad dream 
And your just show up 
Even though I know it's not true 

And it breaks me to know 
I'll never hear your voice 
Never get to hug you
I'll never see your face

Never get to see you 
On your scooter that you love
Never get to hear them random sayings
Or even hear you tell me off

I'll never get to see you 
Make Ki laugh time and time again 
And she'll never get to tell you 
How you are her star 
and how she hugs your penguin 

She misses you like crazy 
And I wish you were here 
Not like this at the crem
But at home in your chair

Walking into the house
 it's filled with silence
Memories of that day etched in 
my my mind, I'm just broken

I'm gonna stay strong and we're 
All make you proud, 
For you weren't just my mom
You were always my best friend 

But I just want you to know 
That this is not goodbye
Cos goodbye means forever
And I'm not prepared to let you go
So for me this is goodnight

Rest in peace momma dearest 
I love you always and forever 
I'll blow you a kiss everyday 
From me and Ki
From here to heaven.

Deb M December 21, 2021 at 2:56 AM Hi Siobhan ….what a beautiful heart touching poem and so relatable. I too had a close relationship with my mum so I get it. Time does ease the pain I believe but doesn’t take it away. Even though you don’t think it now…it will get easier. I’m sending you a big cuddle right now Siobhan! Debx Siobhan Kenny December 24, 2021 at 3:36 PM Thank you for your kind words, it's just so hard accepting that she's no longer here. My heart knows she has my head say she isn't. ?? ??

Constance La France December 20, 2021 at 5:09 PM Siobhan, first let me say I am so sorry for your loss. I know this pain also, as I experienced the loss of my mother too. Your poem is emotional and beautifully penned ~ friendship and poetry _Constance Siobhan Kenny December 24, 2021 at 3:37 PM Thank you for your kind words, it's just really hard atm.
