Theres a land that I heard of ...
Once in a lullaby.
Just Like the twister in the Wizard of OZ
The nightmare came and tore my world apart...
So this long and lonely journey called grief
...has left me with a broken heart.
Dorothys journey continued over the rainbow...
So has my childs...just a little past beyond...
The Wizard of Oz and grief have so much in common...
And so the story and my journey continue on...
Somedays this journey seems long and winding
Just like the Yellow Brick Road,
Sometimes I feel I have lost my way...
And feel like I'm carrying such a heavy load.
Just Like Dorothy met the Scarecrow...the Cowardly Lion..
and the Tin Man... as she went along her way...
I too have met many compassionate people along my way..
But I have also lost just as many who shyed away.
Just like the Scarecrow wanted a brain...
I think I could use a bigger one too...
To hold my memories of sweet yesterdays...
And remember everything he used to do.
Just like the Tin Man wanted a heart...
I think I could use a new one too...
As mine is broken in a million pieces...
Somedays I just dont know what to do.
Like the Cowardly Lion who wanted some courage
I too want some courage....to help me climb this hill...
To help me keep moving through this world of grief
When the whole world seems to be standing still.
When the poppy flowers made Dorothy tired...
The Scarecrow was going to pull her along...
I too need friends to be by my side...
To listen and help me be strong.
If only this story was true
And my child could click his shoes three times or four..
And say theres no place like home...
And he would be back in my arms once more.
If only I could also wake up from this bad dream
And go back in time...
And have my child here once more...
And leave this thing called grief behind.
But since life is not a fairy tale...
And my wishes cannot come true,
We will remember him and all that he was
My beautiful child...I will always love you.
Yes, my child is somewhere over the rainbow
Way up high...
In a place that I heard of...
Once in a lullaby

Always Near as You Walk
And I am no longer with you
Let no tears fall or sorrow prevail
When you see your reflection shimmer in the water
Smile and know that I see your smile
When you feel the cool grass beneath your feet
And the sun’s warmth upon your back
Know that I feel it also
When you hear the leaves rustling in the wind
Know it is my voice softly whispering to you
When you see a butterfly dancing among flowers
Know that I am dancing also
When you gently touch a puppy’s soft fur
Know that I too feel your touch
When the wind swirls across your skin
Know that it is I who caresses you
When you love another
Know that I too feel your love
These words are truth, my love
Have faith, my love
As long as beauty lives upon the earth and in the stars
And love lives in every beat of every heart
So then do I
So then do we all.
Sending my love to you both.xxx
MISSING PIECE
You do what you're suppose to do,
with no frown or fuss.
Not because you want to ,
but because you must.
Day after day
It's like a routine.
Don’t have too much to say,
You only do the right thing.
Soon you feel empty,
but you don't know what it could be.
You want no sympathy.
But it's something you can't see
Everything used to make sense,
but now you're lost in a maze.
You feel so tense,
and you pray for better days.
Something just doesn't seem right
You look for an answer that's not there.
You stay awake all night,
But you feel like no one cares.
It's right in your face
and you think it's safe,
or should you forget?
Things don't seem the same,
But what should you do?
You think you should change,
But change for who?
Understanding means nothing to you now.
Your heart is pronounced deceased
This should you allow ,
or find your missing piece?

Crying to myself
Never asking for anything more
Not from the internet not from the store
Yet alone at night while i lay in bed
Thoughts of sadness play in my head.
Wanting for nothing expensive or bought
Peace and happiness is the only things sought
Tired of crying late through the night
Not wanting to argue not wanting to fight
Sitting at home for days without end
Wondering what happened to my child my best friend
Crying for hours as time passes by
Thinking to myself why do I cry?
Lost in a world full of worries and fears
Brings nothing but sadness depression and tears
Crying to myself seems to ease some of the pain
Yet, what does it do? What does it gain?
Please take away the worry, the pain and the grief
Give me a chance to get some needed relief
To sleep through the night without all this crying
The burdens to heavy, I feel like I'm dying.
Strength, love and courage try to keep me on track
THese I rely on to keep the weight off my back
Pretending and smiling is all that I can do
Crying to myself becuase of how I cant get over of losing you.....
A MOTHERS PAIN
I feel more depressed
Each day when I awake
I wish to god you could tell me
There has been a big mistake.
My darling son was taken
From his mothers love
To live with the angels
In heaven up above
I did not have him with me
For the time I should have had
No longer can I hold him
Which makes me very sad?
The pain of losing my son
Shows in every single tear
I spend each day missing him
Longing to have him near
Life for me is lonely now
Without him by my side
My Broken shattered heart
Is very hard to hide
People tell me that time is a healer
That the pain will go away
They don’t understand
That this pain is here to stay
For when you lose a child
There is nothing that can compare
The bond we had at their birth
Will never leave, it’s always there
The love a mother has
Runs so very deep
That love is so special
It’s in her heart to keep
A mother’s heart is broken
She is ripped apart inside
There is a part of her missing
It left when her child died
So please don’t tell me to get over it
For this I can not do
Unless you understand my feelings
And this has happened to you
Only another mother who has lost a child
Can understand my pain
Because they also suffer daily
As the memories of their child remain
We are a band of mothers
Whose hearts will never heal?
For the loss of our children
Is for us, so very real.
i would like to thankyou for all your support means so much to me
i have made a new site for bree could you please use that 1 as im deleting the old 1 thankyou so much from the bottom of my heart
my love always sarah xxxxxxxxx

I love you to the moon and back,
And then way far beyond;
Without you here to give me life,
My heart does not go on.
For you, my child, were life to me,
The song within my soul;
Without you I am empty,
A half that once was whole.
No matter where you are, my child,
Just know you'll always be;
As close as my next heartbeat,
For your heart resides in me.
I'll always be your Mother,
You'll always be my child;
For in my heart, I'll keep your love,
And we'll never say goodbye
my special brother
I love you to the moon and back,
And then way far beyond;
Without you here to give me life,
My heart does not go on.
For you, my brother, were life to me,
The song within my soul;
Without you I am empty,
A half that once was whole.
No matter where you are,my brother,
Just know you'll always be;
As close as my next heartbeat,
For your heart resides in me.
I'll always be your sister,
You'll always be my brother;
For in my heart, I'll keep your love,
And we'll never say goodbye
