Son, My Son

Contributed by picklepuss on Sunday, 6th September 2009 @ 12:10:51 AM in AEST
Topic: Grief




Son, My Son


I weep for you today, my son.
It doesn’t have to be a special day or even a special
moment for me to weep –
I just have to have a fleeting thought about you.

But today, we are nearing another anniversary
of your death and so my thoughts of you are sad ones. I miss you.
We all miss you.

Time may heal some wounds, but not these. These wounds we suffer are endless… timeless.

Losing a child is horrific; ask any parent.
Our lives go on and we even have bits of joy now and then,
but you are never far from my thoughts.
I can’t help it, I’m a mom and that is just the way
I am wired.

God gave me a heart to love compassionately, completely and my
heart did not stop loving you after yours stopped beating.
I suspect it will remain so until mine stops.

Perhaps through my blurry eyes, I can get a glimpse
of my Heavenly Father’s tears …
the ones He shed when His Son died on Calvary.

His Son sits at His right hand now in heaven…how wonderful
for us that this is so!

Even though I cry often for you…and heaven cries
along with me…
because Jesus lives, you will too!
We can’t wait to see you again.
I suspect I will cry then too, but they will be tears of joy!

Rest on son, rest on. Your Heaven Father will call
you soon, very soon.
Your family will be there to greet you with arms full of hugs
and faces full of kisses.

You won’t know how much time has passed – so we will have to give
you an update…if you even care.
Then it will be home to eternity where we will likely
lose all track of time.
Halleluiah!
