Support From Others

Don’t tell me that you understand.
Don’t tell me that you know.
Don’t tell me that I will survive,
How I will surely grow.
Don’t come at me with answers
That can only come from me.
Don’t tell me how my grief will pass,
That I will soon be free.
Accept me in my ups and downs.
I need someone to share.
Just hold my hand and let me cry
And say, “My friend, I care"


************************

May it make your sorrow
Easier to bear
Knowing there are others
Who understand and care

With heartfelt sympathy

***********************


Through the pain and loss you feel
You can count on our 'support'
We'll be with you, in spirit
And in mind and heart and thought


And though it will be difficult
In the days ahead of you
Try to face the future bravely
As (John) would want you to


**************************

Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.



***************************


Those we love remain with us
For love itself lives on,
And cherished memories never fade
Because a loved one's gone.
Those we love can never be
More than a thought apart,
Far as long as there is memory,
They'll live on in the heart.


**************************


Don't be sad-
I am in a snowflake,
I am in the rays of sun,
I am in the sparkling of stars


***************************


Perhaps they are not
stars in the sky,
but rather openings
where our loved ones
shine down to let us
know they are happy.


Eskimo Traditional

*************************


Death leaves a heartache
No one can heal;
Love leaves a memory
No one can steal


Irish Tombstone

***************************


Words, however kind,
can't mend your heartache: ,
but those who care and ,
share your loss wish you,
comfort and peace of mind.,
May you find strength,
in the love of family,
and in the warm embrace,
of friends.,

Lots more Sympathy Poems



We've known lots of pleasure,
At times endured pain,,
We've lived in the sunshine,
And walked in the rain. ,


But now we're seperated ,
And for a time apart,,
But I am not alone- ,
You're forever in my heart.,


Death always seems so sudden, ,
And it is always sure,,
But what is oft' forgotten-,
It is not without a cure.,


There may be times you miss me, ,
I sort of hope you do,,
But smile when you think of me,,
For I'll be waiting for ,
you.

Now there's many things for you to do,,
And lots of ways to grow,,
So get busy, be happy,and live your life,,
Miss me, but let me go.

Say not, in grief, that (Mary) has gone
But give thanks that she was yours


**************************

Our thoughts are with you
On this sad day
Your ( Father) was a lovely man
And will be sadly missed
By us, among many

*************************

Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief. ,


If my parting has left a void ,
Then fill it with remembered joy. ,


Be not burdened with times of sorrow ,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.,
Gone yet not forgotten, ,
Although we are apart,,
Your spirit lives within me,,
Forever in my heart. ,
