Mom,
Time keeps moving forward, but my heart is still stuck in the moment I lost you.
Every sunrise feels heavy, every night feels endless—because your absence never stops echoing through my life.
You were my anchor—your strength, your love, your gentle way of making everything feel safe. Without you, the world has lost its warmth. Even in laughter, there is an emptiness; even in joy, there is a shadow.
I carry your spirit with me, in the lessons you taught and the love you gave so freely. I miss our late-night talks, your laughter that could light up a room, the comfort of knowing you were always there.
Life goes on—but it’s not the same life. A piece of me will always remain with you. And though the ache of longing never fades, I promise to honor your memory by living fully, by loving deeply—just as you would have wanted.
Until the day we meet again, Mom, you live in me. Forever. ❤️
