Her passing came suddenly, but she lives in my heart.
For Mom
by Jessa kuder
When I was a child my mom seemed infallible.
She knew everything, she was never wrong.
Mom always knew what to do, or say, when things got tough.
It seemed like Mom was magic.
She would make the pain disappear, she kept me safe.
She could fix any problem and make everything better.
As I grew, I realized Mom can be wrong,
But her heart's always in the right place.
I learned that it's not that she made the pain disappear,
It's that her comfort let me know that the hard times will pass.
Her guidance and encouragement gave me the strength to overcome life's hardships.
What is magical, is that still she always knows what to say,
To get me through my toughest days.
She will never give up or turn her back on her children,
No matter our age or faults.
She still brings solace to us, when we need it the most.
Mom is infallible.
She educates her children,
guides them through every walk of life.
Inspires hope and strength,
regardless of how tired she is inside,
She always meets us with a smile and a warm embrace.
So when I lost my mom, all I wanted was my mom, to make it all better.
I found myself for the first time, without my mentor.
Without a comforter to turn to when the world is overwhelming
and I need a shoulder to lean on.
Mom was there through the milestones,
and the heartbreaks.
She held my hand as I walked into kindergarten.
She held my newborn babies on their first days.
She held my love and my respect.
She held me up, so I would never fall.
I'm not sure how to cope with the loss of the woman who has been so profoundly influential.
I'm not sure how to continue on without her.
I'm not sure that I have the strength to get out of bed.
How can I be a rock without her in my corner?
Somehow I will have to find a way to pick up the pieces.
To keep walking with my head held high, despite the tears in my eyes.
Because my children need me.
Because I'm mom and mom is infallible.
