How To Get Over Death Of A Loved One (Poetry)
Moving On With Time
Think of the good times shared
They would not want you to cry
Feel good because you cared
Be strong they’d want you to try
They wouldn’t want you to show a sad face,
They left this earth with dignity,
Shed tears will leave a trace,
They’d hope you had no enmity,
They wouldn’t want any fighting or fussing
Over anything left behind,
No anger, no frowns, no cursing
But maintain a mellowed mind,
They would want for everyone to get along
And show a better breed of love,
You’ve got to hold up the good and be strong
Show the weak what you are made of,
Lives have days of down and up
Must take the sweet along with the bitter
This loved one may have left life abrupt
It is just a day without glitter,
But life goes on so live with the others,
That is what I’d want you to do,
There’s father, mother, sisters and brothers
Other relatives and good friends too,
Smile for how you appreciated me,
There’s nothing to regret,
I hope that you will always see
That living right is the best thing yet,
A Celebration
I noticed that at a session today, they are calling the services a celebration, a going away and other names for such gatherings. Of course, it depends on how the deceased passed away. A violent or senseless crime death may be the hardest to get over or get through and I'm not speaking of that type here. However, we must get over the death of a loved one in one way or another. I do not believe that God "calls anyone home to be with Him." Remember, God is about everlasting life. That is why He sent His only begotten Son. Our freedom is limited when we call ourselves living with free choice. The wrong choices can bound us to be slaves of sin: sin committed within ourselves. A bad choice is choosing to eat food that is bound to kill you after eating enough of it. It may be good to you but not good for you.
