Don't Cry Mama

Don't cry Mama, I'm OK now,
No more pain and suffering, Mama, this I can avow.

Don't cry, Mama, I don't hurt anymore,
It's different here, Mama, a new world to explore.

Don't cry, Mama, don't you be so blue,
I'm your guardian angel, Mama, Im watching over you.

I didn't want to leave you, Mama, I didn't want to die,
But if you could see me now, Mama, no more would you cry.

Really happy now, Mama, soaring with the winds,
I've learned a lot, Mama, made lots of new friends.

I'm finaly free, Mama, no more body wracked with pain.
Fourd you must leave the living, Mama, to freedom really gain.

Don't cry, Mama, somday you'll be with me,
Floating through the heavens, Mama, in God's eternity.

Don't cry, Mama, I'm OK now.

I want you to know that Emile did not want to die. He just wanted something to stop the pain. I truly believe that because I have fought depression and thoughts of suicide more times than I care to remember. Its an uphill battle but sometimes we get lucky and find people who will help us as we climb... that is me...

I hope you find some comfort from this as I have. As far as saying don't cry mama... that's not exactly how I'd word it... I'd say you cry when you need to, Mama, but know how I'm feeling when you do... most of all, Mama, I want to comfort you Things haven't changed, Mama, I will always love you... that's what I think our loved ones would tell us... Love To You and Yours Elissa
