A David Romano poem read by Tom O'Bedlam.

‘When Tomorrow Starts Without Me’ is a simple love poem that’s addressed to all those left behind when someone dies. I hope it can help you through times of grief, especially on All Saints Day when we mourn the loss of our loved ones 🖤

    I buried my son three days ago. I asked him for a sign that he was ok, and I guess this was it.

    Grief is the price we pay for love. We are lucky to grieve, because it means we have loved, but it is so hard. Beautiful words. Sending hugs to all those grieving🖤.

    I just found this today. My husband died a year ago. We had been married 45 years. Its been awful trying to carry on. Listening to this has reduced me to such a depth of despair. I know grief is different for each person and situation. I feel for everyone that's found themselves here. Hopefully, this will be a step in the healing process for us all. We will never forget our loved ones. 💔

  • Wow how lovely hearing this. My hubby left me 19 days ago. We were holding hands and after he passed I held his hand for two hours in such peace in our home together. Miss you Bill RIP. 😊

    My Dad passed away yesterday, and somehow I found this video. Thank you
  • 1Year, 365 days, 52 Weeks, 8760 hours, 525600 minutes, 3153600 seconds since my Father passed. I stumbled across this as I watched the sun rise this morning. These words reduced me to tears but they also comforted me in a warm embrace.
  • I buried my dad 2 days ago. And my mom 2 weeks before. And now I know there was an angel who took them by their hands.
  • I lost my husband a month ago. We had been married for 51 yrs and were best friends and companions . Loved each other to the end ❤ He had suffered severe pain for many years, most especially in the past year. When God took him, his pain was gone, but the loss to my children & I is immeasurable😢 This poem is a great comfort; we have been Born Again Chritians for more than 40 years, and Jesus has carried us faithfully every day. Jesus is our hope of Glory. ❤
  • I, too, lost my 28 yr old, only child January 9,2020...I’ve ALWAYS been able to bounce back after a hardship & now...I have constant “mush mind” & I haven’t stopped grieving or missing him all the time...I’ve finally learned to accept that he’s never coming back & I have to keep moving forward, as hard as it has been to just get up each day & try to find something...anything...or anybody to make me smile?!? I will never be the same me I used to be ... but this complicated & lonely grief road is anything but easy...much prayers and heartfelt sympathy to all of you who has lost someone close...god bless y’all!❤️😘

    I lost my wife of 37 years four days ago. Thank you for this video!
  • Maybe, just maybe, this was meant for me this day, this hour. Yesterday, Christmas morning was the one year anniversary of my husband's death. It hurts so bad. We were married nearly 41 years and he was the love of my life. My better half. Sometimes I am aware when he reaches out to me in love. And this was one of those times. Thank you for posting this and soothing my heart.
  • This made me cry 😭 I miss my daughter so much. Wish I could climb to heaven ❤
  • @Cushla73
    I lost my husband 3 weeks ago, I’ve cried so much because I miss him, there a hole, an emptiness in the house with just me in it, and this came up this morning. Such a comfort. RIP my love, till we meet again ❤️

    This is so beautiful, I see it as a sign from my beloved husband who passed away 9 days ago, before I could get to him ; I’m broken hearted. Much love and prayers to all those who are in mourning at the loss of a loved one ❤
  • I lost my dad 21 years ago and my mother 14 years ago not a day goes by when l don't think of my parents l came across this and cried ❤😊
  • This really helped honestly. My boyfriend took his own life almost 4 days ago, and it hurts. When I listened to this I felt better and sent it to his girl bestfriend. Currently me and her our the only ones keeping eachother together rn. Update: it’s been 4 months now and my and (his) but my new bestfriend are doing good. We text often and hang out sometimes. We’ve mostly gone back to how things are normally but we still discuss him a lot. Even till this day I still think about him everyday but I’ve gotten happier and I don’t cry every time I think about him. Thank you for all the support in all the replies to my comment bless y’all all❤ Update: it’s exactly a year since the first time I saw this video, 4 days ago I went to his burial and saw him. I somehow finally feel at peace, it’s a year later and I feel like part of his family, my life is beginning to feel normal again, and I know he’s in a better place. It’s okay to take time to grieve or take time to celebrate someone that was once here. Never feel like you should let someone you love go. Thank you to everyone that read this and bless you.❤
