Marys Poem

My Sweet Mary

I could search the whole world through

And never feel more love than I felt from you

Such a sweet and perfect child

Always here to make us smile

 

You had such a sweet sweet spirit

What a lonely world without you in it

I do not know why you had to go

I miss you more than anyone can know

For in my heart is a huge huge hole

 

And nothing else can take your place

And nothing will make your memories erase

I don’t know how I will go on

I miss your smile and your song

 

All the things we can no longer share

My world feels so lonely, empty and bare

I know that you are up above

And that you can feel all of our love

 

I came home from work each and everyday

Just so I could see you play

Now I don’t know what I’ll do

Never being able to love and hug on you

 

So much pain I have never known

Now you’re with God, baby you are home

I will miss you more and more each day

Baby please please don’t go away

 

Why why did this have to be

For I love you and you love me

Like a chain that couldn’t be broke

Now we can no longer share fruit snacks and coke

 

No more sliced apples when you can’t sleep

All I can do is sit and weep

No more nights in mommy’s bed

No more getting to rub your beautiful head

 

No more playing the games we shared

Or getting to brush your beautiful hair

No more waking up to your beautiful smile

I only got to have you for such a short while

 

No more swimming in the lake

No more little birthday cake

 

No more castles in the sand

No more holding mommy and daddy’s hand

 

Please someone tell me what to do

Mary I just can’t live without you

You are so much a part of me

Without you I don’t know who to be

 

All the things I have to miss

Please tell me how to live like this!

Each day I will pray and pray

For God to explain why he took you away!

 

I always tried to protect you good

I promise you I did all I could

 

Let you know how I long for your love

Everything seems so unreal

Baby, please help mommy and daddy’s hearts to heal

 

Just take my hand and I’ll take yours

And let’s go back to the way it was before

This is just some dream and we will wake

This can’t be real it must be fake

 

To never see you anymore

Everything about you I adored

I gave you life

And you gave me the best 4 years

My life will ever see

 

All the things we can no longer do

Oh God Mary!  I love you!

What am I supposed to do here without you?

 

I love you more than my own life

Now my world is full of struggle and strife

 

I know you’re an Angel up above

Who came to earth to show us love

Baby, Mommy loves you I know you know

For your whole life I have told you so.

 

I have to wait till it’s my turn to go

God, how I will miss you so

 

Honey, how am I supposed to say goodbye?

For the rest of my life I will sit and cry

One thing for sure, I will never understand why

God took you way up into the sky

 

You will always be my baby Mary

And Mommy will forever Love you!!

My sweet sweet Mary!

About the Author

I am a mother of 6 children one of them is an Angel. My daughter Mary Alyssa Murray passed away in 2007. I wanted so badly to see her face I set out to purchase a dogtag with her photo on it. After a month the photo etched off and she was gone. I was devastated. I set out to find a process that would allow me to put her photo on items where the photo would not come off. I found a process that does just that. I began in late 2007 donating memorial dogtags to parents who lost a child. The response was overwhelming. I could not keep up and it became too expensive to offer them for free any longer. And in August 2008 I created www.yourpersonalizedcreations.com which is a website that offers Memorial Keepsakes which are personalized with your loved ones photos with the hopes of bringing others some comfort. A portion of the proceeds go toward the purchase of Teddy bears that I dress with pesonalized tshirts and donate to children in crisis through Hugs Across America Mary Murray Chapter that I started in 2008. Mary was 4 and a half she loved preschool and art prior to her death I was not creative. Now I can't stay away from creating something new. I think Mary wants me to do her art for her. I love creating something meaningful and personalized for others. I miss my daughter Mary more than words could ever convey she was the joy in our lives. I still can see her sweet smile and I know she is always right beside me.
