Joe Frank was 23 when he died from a self inflicted gunshot. His marriage of 2 years had just ended. He had moved back home several times within 5 months but this time it seemed like he was home to stay. He was happy, content. There was no clue that he didn't want to live. It seemed he was okay with starting a new beginning. I believe that his suicide wasn't planned, but that he done it in a moment of panic. We will never be the same now that Joe Frank is not in this world. If only he,,,,,,,. The questions are endless.
I thought I would have my boys till forever. When Joe Frank died, I did too. My heart still beat although I didn't want it to. I mourned deeply for my child. I longed for the past when we were all together, and grieved for the future we would never see.
I have not turned my back on you,
so there is no need to cry.
I'm watching you from heaven,
just beyond the morning sky.
I've seen you almost fall apart,
when you could barely stand.
I asked the Lord to comfort you,
and watched him take your hand.
He told me you are in more pain,
then I could ever be.
He wiped his eyes and swallowed hard,
then gave your hand to me.
Although you may not feel my touch,
or see me by your side.
I've whispered that I love you,
while I wiped each tear you cried.
So please try not to ache for me,
we'll meet again one day,
beyond the dark and stormy sky,
a Rainbow lights the way

Love,
Phyllis
I feel more depressed
Each day when I awake,
I wish to god you could tell me
There has been a big mistake.
My darling child was taken
From his mothers love,
To live with the angels
In heaven up above.
I did not have him with me
For the time I should have had,
No longer can I hold him
Which makes me very sad.
The pain of losing my Son
Shows in every single tear,
I spend each day missing you
Longing to have you near.
Life for me is lonely now
Without you by my side,
My Broken shattered heart
Is very hard to hide.
People tell me that time is a healer
That the pain will go away,
They just don’t understand
That this pain is here to stay.
For when you lose a child
There is nothing that can compare,
The bond we had at their birth
Will never leave, it’s always there.
The love a mother has
Runs so very deep,
That love is so special
It’s in her heart to keep.
A mother’s heart is broken
She is ripped apart inside,
There is a part of her missing
It left when her child died.
So please don’t tell me to get over it
For this I can not do,
Unless you understand my feelings
And this has happened to you.
Only another mother who has lost a child
Can understand my pain,
Because they also suffer daily
As the memories of their child remain.
We are a band of mothers
Whose hearts will never heal,
For the loss of our children
Is for us, so very real.

Those we love remain with us
for love itself lives on
and cherished memories never fade
because a loved ones gone
those we love can never be
more than a thought apart
for as long as there is memory
they'll live on in the heart.
