~ My Mom Is A Survivor ~

My Mom is a survivor , or so I've heard it said .

But I hear her crying at night when all others are in bed .

I watch her lay awake at night and go to hold her hand .

She doesn't know I'm with her to help her understand .

But like the sands on the beach that never wash away...

I watch over my surviving mom , who thinks of me each day .

She wears a smile for others... a smile of disguise .

But through Heaven's door I see tears flowing from her eyes .

My mom tries to cope with death to keep my memory alive .

But anyone who knows her knows it is her way to survive .

As I watch over my surviving mom... through Heaven's open door .

I try to tell her that Angels protect me forever more .

But I know that doesn't help her or ease the burden she bears .

So if you get the chance , go visit her... And show her that you care .

For no matter what she says  ... no matter what she feels .

My surviving mom has a broken heart that time won't ever heal~ ! 

This is for you  " Kevin "

" My Dad is a Survivor"

My dad is a survivor too...
which is no surprise to me.
He's always been like a lighthouse
that helps you cross a stormy sea.

But, I walk with my dad each day
to lift him when he's down.
I wipe the tears he hides from others.
He cries when noone's around.

I watch him sit up late at night
with my picture in his hand.
He cries as he tries to grieve alone,
and wishes he could understand.

My dad is like a tower of strength.
He's the greatest of them all~!
But there are times when he needs to cry...
Please be there when he falls.

Hold his hand or pat his shoulder...
And tell him it's okay.
Be his strength when he's sad
Help him mourn in his own way.

Now, as I watch over my precious dad
from the Heavens up above...
I'm so proud that he's a survivor...
And, I can still feel his love~!

" Grandparents Are Survivors "

 

Grandparents are a special gift
That God gives to each child.
Their love outshines the brightest star...
Their love can never be defiled.

Oh, but when a child becomes an angel,
Grandparents feel the pain and sorrow.
Beyond any pain they've known in life...
Or will ever come to know tomorrow.

For a grandparent holds a special love
For the child their child has had.
And, to lose what they hold dear...
Leaves them heartbroken and sad.

Their legacy is their grandchildren...
So how can they learn to survive?
Will the dreams of their tomorrows
Somehow be kept alive?

Yes, a grandparent is a survivor...
And life has taught them how to be.
For their wisdom, courage & love
Is carried from them... to You & me.

When tomorrow starts without me, And I'm not there to see,
If the sun should rise and find your eyes All filled with tears for me;
 I wish so much you wouldn't cry The way you did today,
While thinking of the many things, We didn't get to say.
 
I know how much you Love Me, As much as I Love You,
 And each time that you think of me, I know you'll Miss Me too;
But when tomorrow starts without me, Please try to understand,
That an Angel came and called my name, And took me by the hand,
And said my place was ready, In Heaven far above,
And that I'd have to leave behind All those I Dearly Love.
 
But as I turned to walk away, A tear fell from my eye, For all my life,
I'd always thought, I didn't want to die.
I had so much to live for, So much left yet to do,
 It seemed almost impossible, That I was leaving you.
I thought of all the yesterdays, The good ones and the bad,
I thought of all the Love we shared, And all the fun we had.
 
If I could relive yesterday, Just even for a while,
 I'd say good-bye and Kiss you And maybe see you smile.
But then I fully realized, That this could never be,
For emptiness and Memories, Would take the place of me.
 
And when I thought of worldly things, I might miss come tomorrow,
I thought of You, and when I did, My Heart was filled with sorrow.
But when I walked through Heaven's Gates, I felt so much at home.
When God looked down and smiled at me, From His Great Golden Throne,
He said, "This is Eternity, And all I've Promised You."
Today your life on earth is past, But here life starts Anew.
I Promise no tomorrow, But today will Always Last,
And since each day's the same way There's no longing for the past.
You have been so Faithful, So Trusting and so True.
Though there were times You did some things You knew you shouldn't do.
But you have been Forgiven And now at last you're Free.
So won't you come and take My Hand And share my Life with Me?
So when tomorrow starts without me,
Don't think we're far apart, For every time you think of  me,

I'm Right Here In Your  Heart !!!!!

If Tomorrow Never Comes by : Garth Brooks

I have added the words to this song for you to see .

Sometimes late at night

I lay awake and watch her sleeping

She's lost in peaceful dreams

So I turn out the lights

And lay there in the dark

And the thought crosses my mind

If I never wake up

In the morning

Would she ever doubt

The way I feel about her in my heart

If tomorrow never comes

Will she know how much I loved her

Did I try in every way

To show her every day

That she's my only one

And if my time on earth were through

And she must face the world without me

Is the love I gave her in the past

Gonna be enough to last

If tomorrow never comes

'Cause I 've lost loved ones in my life

Who never knew how much I loved them

Now I live with that regret

That my true feelings for them

Never were revealed

So I made a promise to myself

To say each day how much she means to me

And avoid that circumstance

Where there's no second chance

To tell her how I feel

If tomorrow never comes

Will she know how much I loved her

Did I try in every way

To show her every day

That she's my only one

And if my time on earth were through

She must face the world without me

Is the love I gave her in the past

Gonna be enough to last

If tomorrow never comes

So tell that someone that you love

Just what you're thinking of

If tomorrow never comes
