![]() Thought I would post for my Tam... Though I never got to say good-bye
Happy Birthday Tam June 27th 1970-2008 Waving Her Last Goodbye I’ve seen so many people pass Gets hard to watch them go Some used to be friends from my past Some were others that I just know I wish that I could have touched her All I could do was watch her die I sit and look at her picture Then I break down and cry She was just a few yards from me Why didn’t they let me go Three of them held me back As she raised her arm so slow I knew she was reaching for me But they didn’t seem to understand With her last breath she was looking for him But the three were holding back her man If I could just have touched her And kissed her pretty face And told her to be waiting In Heaven’s most holy place One day I’d be sure to follow When it’s my turn to say goodbye Now inside I feel so hollow And there’s nothing left to do but cry I picture in my mind Tenderly stroking her face and hair And whispering ever softly My love, one day I will be there On that morning when I finally got to you All I could do is stare disbelievingly and cry Never got to hold you one last time They held me back as you waved your last goodbye Oh Father, so much anger Oh Father, so much pain That day the tears were pouring faster Like downpours in a thunderstorm of rain Lord Jesus, I know she’s with you As you sent your answer to me with your love A double rainbow sent with love, it’s true Sent by your hand from up above Lord Jesus, I still miss her I can still feel the softness of her hand I see the nighttime walks we took together You just knew she loved her man So proud was I of her She was my best friend in my life So smart and yet so childlike That was the girl I called my wife One minute she was so innocent Another, so funny and naïve I know Heavenly Father where she was sent Because I know that she believes I know that you allowed her That rainbow so vivid in the sky A sign shouted out loud by her As She Waved Her Last Goodbye Because her man’s heart was broken In a million pieces on that day Jesus, always ever faithful Held my hand as I sobbed away Oh Lord, how can I ever thank you What are the words to say Lord, I still sin, we both know it’s true But you still love me anyway Father God, thank you for your Son Jesus, thank you for all you ever gave Such courage, you died for all of us Our sins perish, our spirits forever saved To this day I still remember To this day I still do cry I remember Tammy and my love together And how you allowed Our Last Goodbye Cal821

![]() dear dave what a very moving poem that reaches the heart and soul to the tradgedy of tammys parting i can almost feel the agony and pain it gave you
whatever the personal heartahe we all go through wether its a loss by an illness or accident it all goes round our heads why ?in illness we question ourselves why did they get this was it anything we or they did did i give something in the food that sparked off a reaction was it the cold etc that was caught from me that the body reacted badly to endless whys and if we had done things differently would it still have happened in an accident the whys and what ifs must have been enormous going round your head as i can imagine but that is life these things happen there was never anything we could have done to prevent any of it God calls the shots not us his reasons will be clear to us when we reach heaven and are reunited with our loved ones chrissie told me of her mums belief we are all born with a candle of life but some of us our candles are shorter than others if our loved ones had the shorter candle we can keep it alight in our own way as we keep their love and memories alive this is what you are doing with tammy we didn't know her yet now we do - we didn't meet her yet we feel we have - we never loved her but trough you we all must feel we know tammy and we love her God bless you dave love hazelxxx |

![]() Oh Dave, I'm in tears at such a powerful, emotive poem. Your love, your frustration and your gratitude come across really strong within these lines. It's beautiful and I know it was written with all the emotions that you feel about her death and how you are now. So very sad and yet so full of hope too. I love rainbows and they are signs of hope from God.
God bless you Dave xx

![]() Hazel,
Thank you for that poem and thank you again for the poem you wrote for Jim and my anniversary. Your poem spoke so many feelings that I think we all feel even those who are not recently berveaved. Those feelings stay with us for a long time even if we cover them up with trying to lead a different kind of life then we were used to. I was in a store and passed the isle that sold greeting cards and I just started to cry. I ended uo buying Jim 3 cards. One for our annivserary, one to say I live you and one that send I send my hugs. I will give it to his picture tommorrow morning like I would have done if he was here. I did not realize how hard this was going to be but it feels like the hole in my heart has gotten even bigger. I want to crawl in a corner or punch a hole in the wall. At the same time I know I can't do that because when Jim spoke to me through the medium last week he doesnt want me to go to that "feeling place" anymore and that he loves me and I am not alone. Chrissie, hope you are doing alright and thank you for always being there. I joined another sight here in the US put stopped after two days because the poeple are nothing like all of the great people on this sight. Speak to you both tommorrow. Love and Hugs, Sheryl |
