Missing You, My Dear Sister
That morning I saw you fall into eternal sleep;
I tried to wake you up as I began to weep,
I find it way too hard to believe,
That you have gone and I can only grieve;
I look for you in every familiar spot.
I call out your name -- but you answer not.
I miss all the tiny little ways you showed you cared,
For there are so many sweet moments we shared;
Looking back on your short life’s assorted scenes,
I realized I’ve learned from you what love truly means;
You were my trustworthy confidante and best sister,
And all those loving supports you had offered.
I look at your smiling face in all your photos,
Memories come flooding back as I feel your mementos;
From the happy times you and I once had,
But now they bring tears and make me sad;
Time just goes by mercilessly in a wink,
Life is not as long as we’d like to think.
Memories may bring comfort and make me smile,
But there are moments when grief takes over for a while;
Friends offer nice words and prayers to console,
And tell me what has happened to your loving soul;
Is is true what people say of time healing grief?
Is it enough when they say death has given you relief?
I will never forget the loving memories we shared,
But still I miss you so very much my sister dear;
And your caring words once again I long to hear,
I should be happy you’re free of pain and fear;
Cause my beloved one rests in God’s warm care,
And I know your kind soul wants no grief and tear.
