I never got to say goodbye
From Donna –
i just read your poem. my son (he was 22) left me on oct 31 2009. i never got to say good bye to him. in my mind sometimes he is still down stairs working on his train layout. i can hear him. my sister offered to help clean out the basement i told her i cant look at his pickup but i leave his work clothes were they always hung so i smell them or touch them..
even my family says they cant fathom what i am feeling neither can i .
i have so many feelings i dont know what i feel.
Hello,
I’m so sorry for your loss,I’m sitting here feeling sorry for myself,I lost my son July 4th,2009,its only been a few months.But I know the grief your going threw.I realized I’m not alone,so many mothers have lost thier children this year.But today is Thanksgiving,I will say a prayer,not only for my son,but for others too.God Bless You!!!
I lost my son (25) on November 3, 2009 in a terrible car accident. He was my only child. I want to die everyday! I too smell his clothes and look at his pictures. I just cry and cry and cry. I didn’t know that the human body could produce so many tears and sooooo much mucus. I, like others have no purpose in life now, he was our everything. I will never see him marry, buy a home, be loved by that someone special, I’ll never know what it’s like to be a grandmother, watch him become a father, share special moments with him, and grow old knowing that he was my greatest legacy and achievement. Why! Why! Why!
