Your sentiments make perfect sense as intense feelings of loss are deeply personal;
difficult to adequately describe; and needn't be shared for public consumption.
When the time is right, you'll find the words. Until then... perhaps, quoting a passage from a poem could speak for you.
Thanks for everyones help and advice Im still trying to write something but have a few ideas what I should write. I think part of the problem is I dont think I really want to share my feelings for my mum with everyone I like to keep this to myself, if that makes any sense.
Thanks again x
Go to a place where the two of you shared happy moments together.
Every year, on the anniversary of my deceased boyfriend's death (December 28th),
I visit a park that overlooks the ocean and I toss a flower into the water.
It's a place where he and I used to frequent and it's where he first told me that he
was in love with me.
It's emotionally challenging and intensely cathartic but, it offers me a deep spiritual connection with him... which is something that I never want to lose.
In time, you'll find special ways to pay homage to your mom.
Take care and God bless.
You have gotten some great advice here, I would like to add, try to remember the fun times you all had together, how others loved her, what she liked to do, hobbies,etc. My mother has been with the Lord for 4 years, and it STILL hurts on the anniversary of her death. I think it always will to a certain extent.
Here is a big hug for you, and may our Lord bless and help you as you write this.

Listen to a song that touches your heart and think of your Mom.Just write what you feel.Its a very personal thing.You must write it yourself,your feelings about how this loss has affected you,how much you miss your Mom,even a bible verse dedicated to your Mom is fine.Write it as if you were talking to your Mom.You can tell her how you have felt this last year,how much you miss certain qualities she had,not having her around,its up to you!It doesn't have to rhyme,its a message to your Mom from you! Don't put to much pressure on yourself.It doesn't have to be poetic,just let your soul guide you in what to write.Pray to God,he will help you put your feelings,pain & loss in to words.My Mom passed August 14th,this is a day that won't be easy for me either.On that day,be good to yourself and try to relax.Big hug to you & God Bless,Jen
My deepest condolences. My mother died July 19th,so I understand what you are going throught. You have different options. You can contact the newspaper of choice and they can give you recommendations or I recommend to go on the internet. Type "How to write a memorial tribute" and you will have many options to chose from.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
