For Mrs. Jackson A Poem by Susie Michael ‘Since You Left’

My happiest day was when I went to see Michael perform live for the first time, age 11. (He gave many such days). My most devastating day was the one when Michael “left the building”.

.Mrs Jackson, I believe that God puts certain people on this Earth because he has entrusted them with a special task. They may have an important message, vocation, or some other example to show the world. Such people are,Mother Theresa, Martin Luther King, Nelson Mendela, Princess Diana: to name just a few. Michael Jackson is an integral member of this group of “Earth- bound Angels”. Michael uniquely ticks all the boxes and more.

He was/is a shining light in this world, a beacon of hope and worldly wisdom. His message is everlasting. His music and genius talent will live on. His legacy lives in the hearts, minds, eyes and ears of the global population. . Michael always said that the three most important things in his life ‘are my family and friends, my music and my fans.’

As a devoted fan I have shared in his happiness, joy, achievements, triumphs and pain. Growing up with Michael I wondered why one who gave so much and so freely could suffer so much. . For all this and more, I want to say Thank You Mrs Jackson, for bringing and sharing your precious son with me and the rest of the world .I always loved him and always will. . I pray that your suffering will reduce with each passing day.

God Bless you and all of your family. . Love SusieMichael Perera-Sweetman - Believing in Michael Jackson, Past,Present and Future.

How Long

How many times must our hearts’ break

How long must we endure this heart ache

How long before we can accept our King is gone

How can we find the strength to carry on?

Why did you have to leave

Why didn’t you tell the angels no

Why did you have to go

In my mind you are still here

You’re so far away

Yet you seem so near

You were the one who pulled us through

How do we get by without you

How is it that all our tears are now for you

How will we ever get over losing you

We long to be with you

But we know that is the last thing you want us to do

Why do my eyes weep

When I’m not even crying

Is my mind accepting or lying

How do I keep from dying

We must speak your name

MICHAEL JACKSON

So the world will know your fame

What you did

How you lived

Always giving, always sharing, always caring

How long must our hearts ache

How long before we can accept that you are gone

My heart and mind say never

You are with us forever

I miss you Michael

I’ll never let you go

You will stay in my heart

We will never be apart
