It’s Hard To Forget Someone Who Gave You So Much To Remember- Yinka Fadayomi

MY DARKEST HOUR – The darkest day of my life.

Today, Tuesday, 18th February, 2014 is the darkest moment of my life.
I lost my Mother, Mrs. Bolanle FADAYOMI, who was a rare gem, friend, sister, confidant, benefactor and everything to me.
Tears of blood fall from my broken heart. I never thought we would be apart so soon.
Your tender care and unparalleled love. These two things about you I will miss forever.
As I sit here thinking and writing about you. My face is wet with tears.
Going down the memory lane. I lost my dad at a tender age, you promised me, “I would not feel it or regret that I don’t have a dad”. This promise you kept till your last breath. You left when the ovation was loudest.
You made me whatever I am today! Everybody gave up on me but you stood by me through thick and thin. I owe you my all! If I come to the world again, I will still choose You as my mother.
Today, something has just left me. A sword just pierced my soul. A hurt so deep it cuts like a knife. This is too much for me to bear. This is a reality too difficult to accept. This is too real to be real.
I’ve cried, and you’d think I’d be better for it, but the sadness just sleeps, and it stays in my spine the rest of my life.
IYE OMO LO! Good night Mummy!
Many mothers have done excellently,
but you surpass them all.
May your gentle soul rest in perfect peace. Amen.
IYE OMO!!!
I don’t know how much I loved you until you are gone.
I’ve missed you, I still miss you and I will always miss you. I will give all I can, if only I can turn back the hand of time…
M – O – T – H – E – R ……………………….
“M” is for the Million things she gave me,
“O” means Only that she’s growing old,
“T” is for the Tears she shed to save me,
“H” is for her Heart of gold,
“E” is for her Eyes with love-light shining in them,
“R” means Right, and right she’ll always be,
Put them all together, they spell “MOTHER”
I am Proud of You, Mum.
I LOVE YOU MOM.
