Still I need You Like The Flowers Need The RainA Poem by Melissia AnnA poem that I wrote the day after my Mom passed away R.I.P. Mom I Love You
I lay awake at night, wondering if you are ok, my heart is so broken for now I don't have you. Our Lord took you to be with Him in the heavens; still I need you like flowers need rain.
You were my world and now you are gone; I don't know what to do with myself, this is so hard. You were a great mother and a wonderful wife. Dad misses you and so do I.
It seems like yesterday you were getting me ready for my first day of school, telling me everything will be ok and that you would see me when I got home. You would always have banana bread and orange juice on the kitchen table when I came home from school. Mom why did you have to go so soon? Still I need you like flowers need rain.
You were and always will be my hero, you went through so much that you should have never gone through; but still you kept on treading along, like nothing was wrong. How did you do it? From taking beatings from our dad to doing what ever it took to take care of us girls. Never once did you complain. You were my everything and still I need you like flowers need rain.
I know that you are no longer suffering in pain, nor going insane from all the bad memories of your life. I just wish I could have had you here with me a little while longer I miss you so very much. I bet you are sitting up there right now with your daddy who you loved so; and if I know you, You are probably pinching Tonto's little feet to make him cry LOL now Mom, you know that ain't right and your daddy will get you for that.
as I close this poem, I want you to know that you were my hero, my world, my rock many times, and more or less my everything. Mom, I love you more than you will ever know and I am so sorry that I couldn't help you. When you were lying in that hospital bed dying, I felt so helpless because I had always tried to do whatever you needed me to do and still I couldn't help you. I am truly sorry. R.I.P. my dear Mother, for I will and still do need you like flowers need rain. Love, Melissia Ann
This was written for my beautiful mother and friend because she was my best friend,
