Yesterday was my Mum's birthday. I rarely talk about her to people, but shes always on my mind regardless. I saw this Poem online a few months ago and I saved it because it completely expressed how I feel.

She is Just away

I can not say,
and Will not say
That She is dead -
She is Just Away.
With a cheery smile,
And a wave of the hand,
She has wandered
into an unknown land,
And left us dreaming
How very fair
It needs must be
Since she lingers there,
So think of her faring on, as Dear
In the love of there
as the love of here;
Think of her still
as the same, I say:
She is not dead-
She is Just Away
