Shelley,
I look in the mirror
and see a person
that may be me
she
looks like me
somewhat older
working on being thinner
an ex drinker
(ah but still a smoker
well I am not a saint!)
I do not understand
who I am anymore
part of my soul
has been ripped out
by your murder
I think
maybe
you have
a piece of my soul
with your soul
maybe
it is something you
can wrap around yourself
and know
you are loved
it is a comfort
I will think of it like that
I can live with that
in my half shadow world
with a piece missing
XX always

Me at the beach!
Words frame our reality. Actions define our lives.
Me at the beach!
About Me
- KG
- Mother of three and life-partner of one. Born in the year of the dragon. Started this blog after the murder of my daughter, Shelley Mather, in the London Bombings 7/7/05. The following quote has become my mantra. "I would say that I'm a non-violent soldier. In place of weapons of violence, you have to use your mind, your heart, your sense of humour; every faculty available to you because no one has the right to take the life of another human being." Joan Baez b. 1941

Thinking of you today - love you lots!!!!!!! The Stenersen's
Love you and miss you Shelley
I am still in disbelief even 4 years on... I think about you and your mum and partner and your dad and your brothers often... and the girls from London, that contiki 'experience', and the day in Brighton, my farewell in London when I saw you last and you were there to wish me well even thou you had the flu!
Its been hard times trying to adjust to life at home here in NZ. I'm in Wellington now, and I often think just how much you would love life here.
I saw some Glastonbury pics the other day... I wish you were there!
I wish you were here... I miss you and the good chats and the good advice more than a Tonne could ever weigh!
See you one day chick...
Becs xx
