Parents Of Suicides
Stories From The

Heart
We are parents who have lost children to suicide. These are our writings about our losses and about the aftermath left behind by those who die by suicide.


River of Tears

If we could put all the tears together we've shed for our beloved children, it would be called the River of Tears.

This river would be deep with pain.
The color dark with sorrow.
The current swift with emotions.
The bottom rocky.
The banks hard to climb.

If left to grieve alone, it could pull us under by it's strong under tow.

For this reason, we have come together as Parents of Suicides, bonded in the love and the loss of our children. Together we share, care, and support one another in our journey with grief.
