As I Look At Her

My mother is no stranger
but yet a stranger she seems to be
As I sit and look at her
and she looks back at me
As I speak to her she stares at me
wondering what it is that I say
I can’t imagine living her life now
that she lives each and every day
I love my mother
with all the love in my heart
It hurts to see her the way she is
tears swell in my eyes as I realize this world she soon will part
We all get older
and eventually we all will die
Pardon me for a moment
I need to wipe a tear from my eye
It burdens my heart
to see my mother in her state of mind
So difficult to see her like this
in my head I search for many good memories to find
Dear mother I love you
but sadness overwhelms my sense of joy
Just know I am by your side
the one who used to be your blond haired little boy
I know you can’t hear me
but you still see me with your eyes
You know who I am
each and every time we say our hellos and goodbye’s
Mom, I am so sorry
you are where you are
You have always been my number one
always my shining star
If you love someone, let them know before it’s too late!

I went through something very similar with my Mom a few years ago. I know the pain. I know the difficulties. I am sorry that you're going through this. I know it is not easy.
Takes courage to post this. Well written and full of emotion.
Wish there was something magical I could say to take the pain away but alas, I can't. Just know you're not alone.
Hang in there and best wishes to you and family.
Tim

| It is never easy...whether someone is taken before they live their life or if they can't remember living it. My heart goes out to you. |

| My mother is starting down this road and I already know a little of the pain. Thank-you for sharing your pain it brings a light to those of us who are going through a similar difficult time. |
