Heres another post about a friend that was just taken away from me resently, She ment alot to me and my friends and its about our missing her and out regrets...July 11, 1981-Septemeber 20, 2000 (RIP our Sunshine)


Taken Away

You think if all the should ofs', would ofs' and could ofs'..
till the day has come and you said good bye but not the way
you wanted too

Tormented by the past, blaming yourself,  and I, blaming myself..
Harsh words spoken, the future looked crumbly, not there to hold you up
I wasn't there, I wasn;t there..

Turned around and you was gone, your not there..
Standing silently to the when the final realization is there
that we won't hear your laughther, we won't see your smile..
We wasn't there, we wasn't there...
Promises broken, a special person you was, to touch
each of lives..

You was there, you was there..

A sister no less, a sister no more..
We turn around and look back..
but you fell, far away for us..
We tried to get you back,
We were there, We were there

We tried listen to your tortured pleas,
we stood by you through think and thin
We was your family...
Sisters we were, Sisters we'll be

We made a pact to visit each in when
we each slowly demise in to the bliss
of nothingness..
Promise to Keep, Promise to keep

We heard your laughter today..
We heard you call out our names...
Was you there?
Or was it just a play on our mind?
We Heard the laughter..

Take away the pain, We fear we can handle it
No more..
Bring Back our Sunshine,
Bring Back her Smile,
Her Laughter,
Her Voice..

I'm so sorry about your loss.  You have given a great tribute here.  Very nice poem.

BirdeeB~
Oh, my ...
how this speaks to my heart this day -

'A sister no less, a sister no more..
We turn around and look back..
but you fell, far away for us..
We tried to get you back,
We were there, We were there'


Soft tears flow in remembrance.
