My beautiful Mother

This section is dedicated to a VERY special person: My Mother.
She was my best friend throughout my entire life. She was indeed
unique... she was a beautiful person! Kind, loving and she loved to tell dirty jokes! I lost her on February 13, 2003.
I was devastated to say the least, and am still having a hard time dealing with it. They say that time heals all wounds...
I think "they" are wrong. Below is a poem I had written for her, but didn't get the chance to read it for her except at her
funeral:

Wonderous Beauty;
shining through dark, soul-torn eyes.
Depression deep
seeding as time wisks away her gentle life.
Ominous thief; stealing
her outward appeal,
Yet, unable to touch
what lies beneath.
True beauty is eternal.
Neither time, nor
those who wish to oppress can tarnish that
which we hold deep
within.

My mother was sick for a very long time. She had Emphysema and suffered
alot the last couple years of her life. But no matter how sick she was, how bad she felt, or how depressed she became,
she never lost that which she held deep within: True Beauty

This is one of the many poems she had written. She had a very artistic
mind. The words just came to her so easy... that's one thing I had always envied, and adored about her :)

| This is her when she was young and healthy. She was Beautiful =) |
When she called and read me that poem, it made me cry. I thought
it was not only beautiful, but it showed the emotions she was having. It was her way of letting me know that her time was
coming; that she was afraid, but had the faith she needed to accept it (Though I didn't realize that until it was too late).
I have many regrets where she is concerned, but there's nothing that can be done about it now, or ever. So if I could give
only 1 piece of advice, it would be to love and cherish those that you care for... you never know when they're going to be
gone, and you never get a 2nd chance.
