I wrote this for gapeach104's mother.

My Heart Is Still Here

Although you are here
Slowly drifting away,
My heart is still here
With you every day.

I still love you mom
But I've got to grow,
My heart is still here
This, you need to know.

I had to go on
To live my own life,
I was tired of being
A widowed wife.

My life has expanded
Into something new,
My heart is still here
And will always be with you.

You mean the world to me
And God is in control,
My heart is still here
And will never go cold.

Time will only tell
Before He takes you home,
Your memory will never fade
And we'll never be alone.

Take me in your heart
And never forget me in your mind,
My heart is still here
And is yours, forever in time.

brought tears to my eyes...quite touching

Nice.......

It's wonderful that you can help her express what might otherwise be difficult for her. That is a gift.

Thank you Robert for writing such a beautiful poem. You understood how I have been feeling about the situation with my mother. I do love her so much. I love you.

Thank you Pam, Michele and Angel..ya'll are too sweet. I only felt what I felt in her emotions and I could feel the words come to me...

You're quite welcome sweetheart, for I wish more could be with you and your mother at this time and I wish you lots of love and peace. I love you too.
