About the Poem

I recently lost a woman that raised me, through actions and her loving guidance, from birth. She showed me how to love others, consider their feelings, and to always have pride in myself and know that I am loved.

I will miss her greatly, but God needed another angel, and she already has the experience from her years here - guiding and loving all, from her closest family to a person she might be waiting in line with at the grocery store.

Everything I do, everything I accomplish, I do with her in my mind and in my heart.

In Loving Memory of Marie 1928-2000

Never Alone

by Rodney Belcher

I feel you in the morning
When at first I awake
Your thought is with me
With each decision I make

You'd been around forever
Since the first breath I took
Now I have to go on alone
But for love, I need not look

Cause by what you bestowed
In our short time together
Will last in my heart
Forever and ever

Although you've left
And now walk above
I'm never alone
I'm wrapped in your love

Enjoy now your long waited reward
Feel peace that your love continues on
What was taught to me, will be taught to mine
Cause you live on in me even after you've gone

death is a really bad thing but see no one can really do anything about it cause like always god has plans for us when we die. i had someone really close to me but see i also regret not seeing them daily and she died and i thought that i couldn't deal with it but i also got over it and went on with life even though i think about her all the time i still go on with life. death is a painful thing to deal with i would i know

Jodi

Wow. thats really all there is to say. I know that when people say "I understand how you feel" they really dont. But I understand everthing that I read in your poem. I lost my mom when I was 6 years old, and now I'm 14. Sometimes things are really hard. But I actually got into writing poetry about 2 years ago. Its really helped me a lot in so many ways. I love reading other peoples poetry. When I find a poem that I really like, and I can really understand, its like instead of reading it, I can feel it. I really did enjoy your poem, and I'm sure other people do to. Keep up the good work, I'm sure you will:)

The peom is lovely

Joel

I love the idea that you're celebrating her memory instead of only mourning her. Beautiful work that could only have come from the heart.

stacey

this is the type of poem that really gets deep in to your thoughts and i was very touched by the words in this poem it reminds me about some of the friends that i have loved and lost i think that poems are a good way to expree the way that you are feeling.

Nina

I loved this poem. I just lost someone very special in my life and this poem has really touched my heart. This was a pretty new relationship, we had been dating for 10 months and he was recently killed. I often feel that we did not have enough time to be together, but your poem made the statement, "In our short time together Will last in my heart Forever and ever. " This is exactly how I feel about him. This poem really brought tears to my eyes, it's like you know exactly what I am going through. With all of the pain that I feel, it's like no one has been able to say anything yet that has really made sense or made my feel better, but your poem has really helped me. Thank you.

Sarah

love the poem! And i understand what your going through cuz i just resently lost a loved one.

Christina

jessica

i love this poem! it describes the relationship that i had with my great grandma. she was the most important person to me. well, thanks.

michelle

I really liked this poem. I can relate to what Rodney Belcher is trying to say. I can say that because i also have lost someone i really cared about: My mother. When she died, i felt alittle empty inside and i really did not know what to do and how to deal with all the emotions running through my mind. This poem was really sweet and anyone that has ever lost somebody they loved, they should read this peice of literature and appreciate that they are not alone.

Ashley

I love this poem, it was written so very beautifully and well spoken. It actually brought tears to my eyes because I feel this feeling everyday after the death of my grandmother. I envy your talent and ability.

Peggy

Thank you so much for such a beautiful poem. My mom passed away a few months ago & I feel like her love will always be with me. Plus I have 2 children that receive her love from me everyday. She taught me how to be a good mother by giving that unconditional love that all children deserve. I couldn't ask for a better gift. I miss her physical presence, but her love is definitely a part of me & my family.

Karen

Poet: This poem really touched me. I lost my mother several months ago, and at age 27, cannot imagine living a whole lifetime without her. She was taken from me so suddenly, and although we did not have much time to spend together (as you mentioned in your poem), her love still fills my heart everyday. I dream of her, and wake up with her on my mind. I can see her now. smiling and dancing barefoot in a field of beautiful roses (those that she wouldn't be allergic to, b/c she was allergic to everything in this life!), waiting to see her family again. Oh how I miss her. thank you for sharing your loss.

Dusti

This poem really touched me in so many ways. I was a mother of two but, now a mother of one. Someone took my two year old from me only three months ago. Her name was abigail. So this was a very touching poem for me.

Chantal

it was a nice poem and i liked it very MUCH!

rebecca

this poem put a tear in my eye sorry 4 ur lost

sandie

I think the poem is very moving it expresses deep emotion that often does'nt surface Still waiting for the loved one to help with decisions,and how their heart breaks but not from lack of love. They were left a life time full of love. They still feel comforted by their loved one (stating the strong bond) between them. They were taught love at the first breath they took and that is a wounderful feeling to pass on. To be so sure to say (I AM LOVED)

bex

i loved this poem so much, i just recently lost my dad and this poem is just so fitting, its so beautiful

This poem has touched me, not only emotionally, but mentally too. It reminds me of the wonderful, loving, great times in the past that I have shared with my deceased mother. She meant a great deal to me. Even though, I was very young when she died I got to know her after and before she died as well. She died from Liver Cancer. I am reminded of her each and everyday I look in the mirror. Thank you so much for touching me.

I thank God that I was able to tell my mother just how much she meant to me and how much I loved her. She passed away June 2004. I searched for a poem, for her service, that would express those feelings and found 'Never Alone'. It was, and still is, truly perfect. I tried to write something myself but my feelings of grief were much too strong. So thank you Mr. Belcher for sharing your poem with all of us.

a friend of mine recently lost her mum and is understandably very saddened by her loss-I have to admit i was feeling a little lost and bewildered as i knew i could never do anything to ease her pain as i just couldnt possibly ever know what she is going through but reading this poem has helped me a bit in finding a way to comprehend some of the pain she must be feeling!Being understanding is very important to me and i would like to say that your poem has helped me achieve some sort of understanding to her pain! So thank-you it is a beautifully written poem and im sorry for any loss you have felt!

I was truly touched by the poem b/c my uncle and only godfather passed away recently not long before my birthday and I was going to have a party and I was supposed to dance with him. Unfourtanetly he was basically murder aboutless than a month before my birthday. I wanted to write something too but it was too hard to.

Thank you for your wonderful poem! I just lost my father on Friday and was trying to find a poem for the funeral - the sudden loss of our father has left us at a loss. He was so young and had so much still to do - my brothers wife is expecting their 2nd baby any day and daddy won't be here to see him, hold him, snuggle him or guide him. I pulled comfort from your poem in knowing that he will always be here with us. Thank you again for finding the words and putting them on paper in such a beautiful way. May peace be with you as well as you greive for the one you loved.

When my grandma died I decided to make a page for her in my scrapbook. I spent days trying to find a poem that would be perfect for it. This is the only poem I've found that I can relate to. In July, it'll be five years that she's been gone. I want to thank you for writing this poem. You definately get my vote!

Your poem was emotional and so true. The part that I felt connected with is when you said Caused by what you bestowed in our short time together will last in my heart forever and ever. A love one who is watching over me from heaven told me a phrase that a rose is beautiful but its thorn is deadly. Keep up the good work

Shea

my x-boyfriend juss lost his mom because they were in a car accident and i feel for him because in may i lost my grandfather . I'm going to give him this poem as soon as he gets out of the hospital or to where he can read it beacuse i think it might can help him get through some of his grief. When i read this poem my eyes welled up with tears!I realized not to take the ones you care for most for grantit.

Nish

Seem as though death always leave us with an empty feeling. This poem touched me in many ways. My boyfriend's older brother was just recently killed in an automoblie accident,and two months later his brother's first child was born. He will never know his son, and never fulfill his fiance's dream of getting married. My boyfriend is all torn up about it and seems as though I can't reach out to him like I want to. Thank you for writing this and sending the message that yes you are gone, but I'll never forget, and I will somehow live on with you by my side. Thanks again for the encouraging words. I'm sure he will relate to this poem

This is exacly how I felt when my mom passed away about three years ago. She was the most caring love woman I know, I feel his pain. This poem was thick, it's not just what's written on the line but in between the lines that make it so strong.
