Nobody told me how often I would see your face, then blink and see another instead. Nobody told me that trying to recall the exact sound of your voice would keep me awake at night. Nobody told me that I would reach for my phone so often to heartbreakingly put it back down again. Nobody told me that you were my moon and my sun, my reason and my way, my morning and my night. Nobody told me that your life would feel like a film I made up in my head, that I would seek out others that had seen it too, just to feel you there for a moment. Nobody told me that food would lose taste, that air would lack oxygen that I would miss you this much. I miss you this much! ❤️🌻 Together Always Sas xx Mum

You can shed tears that she is gone, Or you can smile because she has lived. You can close your eyes and pray she will come back, Or you can open your eyes and see all she has left. Your heart can be empty because you can't see her, Or you can be full of the love you shared. You can turn your back on tomorrow and live yesterday, Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday. You can remember her and only that she has gone, Or you can cherish her memory and let it live on. You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back, Or you can do what she would want, smile, open your eyes, love and go on. Poem by David Harkins How proud she would have been to see the six of us standing together reading this verse by verse as a tribute to her. All the way to the moon and back Saskia. Forever yours, Mum xxxx

I hope that someday when I am gone, someone, somewhere, picks up my soul off these pages and thinks, "I would have loved her" Nicole Lyons
