For My Mother

A tribute to my late mom who passed away 3 years ago today...

My mother
She filled me up with such feelings
She radiated joy into all our being
And for herself
She kept not a single thing

My mother
She was always so giving

Feelings, are only feelings
Till you've lost your mother
And your feelings become a burden

Rest in Peace Ina (1938 - 2005)

  1. May her soul rest in peace, Nessa. It's not easy going through life without our loved ones kan. So tough. But support from family members and friends can make things a littttle bit ok. And of course, their memories in our hearts keep us going.

  2. Osindak - Thank you for the kind and comforting words :) It's never the same without Ina around, but at least she's not in pain anymore and in a better place.

  11. Ann - Same here sis... it feels as if it was only yesterday we surrounded her bed, taking turns to bathe and feed Ina. I dread the nights where relatives would come and gather... all I wanted was peace and for things to return to normal.

  12. Nick - I'm sure she is. What I'd do to have her back but I know that's not possible.

  13. La Delirante - We'll always miss the ones we are close to. Letting go is never easy but it's something we need to do so we could go on with our life...
