Losing A Loved Ones

By Shirley H. Brunson

Although your heart is hurting
And you feel you can't go on
Know in that very moment
Your loved one wasn't alone

For God was there beside them
Holding onto their hand
As the time drew nearer
For them to leave this land

He held them close and whispered
"My child, your time is now"
"But how will my loved ones go on?"
He whispered, "I will show them how"

"I will give them strength and love"
And comfort in the night
I will fill their hearts with peace
Knowing you had wings as you took flight

You no longer walk amongst them
For now you fly above
With all my Heavenly angels
Spreading ever lasting and external love

This is a beautiful, comforting poem that I could relate and touched my heart.
Letting go is never easy and each person will have to deal with the losing in his/her own way.
I was very sad and helpless as I watched my only younger sister fight for last breath and for those left behind are the one feeling the pain.
