Friends and family can be really helpful at a time like this but this doesn't help you to put down on paper how you really felt about your mom. The pain of his or her physical absence seems like it is sometimes too much to bear.
Only time heals such grief but in the mean while if there are words of comfort sometimes they help the grieving people by giving them a different perspective of the unfortunate event. When friends and family die, there is a void, an empty feeling that is hard to fill. Many short poems exemplifies the theme of reassurance to the living that death is not the cessation of life but a continuation.
This part can take the form of a narrative, the way that the person's history did, or several people can get up to talk about their memories of the deceased. People should realize through the poem that they lived with a kind soul and great person. A funeral poem should about the person and their journey through life more than writing down your feelings.
Grieving is normal as it forms part of our complex emotions as human beings. As hard as it may seem right now, it gets better.
