18 tcf.org.uk COMPASSION | YOUR POEMS & STORIES Chloe shared by Michelle Navarra, who is navigating grief from the perspective of losing her precious daughter Chloe, August 2023. The pain searing through my body feels all consuming, suffocating me, my heart bleeding, it won’t stop. I know it never will. How can it? There is a gaping Chloe shaped hole that will never heal… Regardless of time passing. My Tears flow non stop, stinging my cheeks, my eyes can’t see. I don’t want to see. I want to close my eyes and wish this nightmare away forever. But my reality tells me this is not going away. Knowing I will never see you physically again fills me with overwhelming sadness. There are no words to adequately describe this type of pain. Feels like I can’t breathe, a panic attack that’s never leaving me. Why did you go? I would have given my life to save you… I count the days until we meet again. My big brother, my angel in the sky My big brother, the one who can really fly I know you can’t see me here But I hope you will always sense that I’m near I’m watching down on you I’m very proud of you too I see you when you’re smiling And even when you’re frowning I see you at the park And watch over you in the dark Heaven is a beautiful place So please keep your happy face And don’t you worry because Your tears got rid of all my fears The robin on the ground I sent that to be around The feather I sent to land at your feet I sent that because I know you’re sweet You have a heart of gold Keep that until you are old You’re always in my heart Even though we are apart I’ll always be by your side I’ll forever be your guide Always look for signs That I am always around I send you all my kisses So turn them into wishes I love you so much I’ll always be in touch Your big brother Your angel in the sky Dedicated to McKenzie Elliott - Forever 12 shared by Beth Commons Loved always, love mummy
