To the heart’s of those left behind.

A poem about a mothers grief five years on and counting.

To the heart’s of those left behind. written by Natalie Karen
 
 I feel no peace in wishing you were still here. 
 I feel no peace knowing that I can’t hold you in my arms.
 I feel no peace in thinking you were taken too soon.
 I feel no peace in feeling my emmense pain and sorrow. 
 And I feel no peace in having lost you my beautiful little boy.
 
 But I do feel peace in knowing that I loved you with all my heart.
 I feel peace in having known you, if only for 9 years, you have given me a lifetime of love and new found wisdom.
I feel peace in all you have taught me about this life. 
And I feel peace in knowing that I did my best to nuture and honour you. 
 
 I feel peace, when I refuse to allow pain and sorrow to shadow the beauty of sharing my life with you. 
 
 I feel peace when I remember you, the lump in my throat tells my heart to embrace nothing but feelings of love and gratitude for knowing you.
 
 I feel at peace, knowing that I can love so deeply and unconditionally and let the beautiful memories of your smile help mend my broken heart.
 
 I feel peace believing that our souls will connect from time to time and when we do, it reminds me that life is miraculous, I’m inspired and my heart is full.
 
Finding peace amongst my sorrow is truly honoring the life we have shared together
Finding peace and acceptance is respectful to a life still to be lived.  
 
 Until we connect again my beautiful brave boy, fly high.
