Of pebbles and Flowers This shrine of pebbles and flowers of shrubs cut to pretty shapes, my eyes fall upon believing you are there, as tears stream down the fleshy hill of my face a trembling voice utters words of what might have been leaving us voiceless Mum stares into Neverland and Dad cries his regrets and they fall into your earth your home I ask again Why? Why only you? Why not me? Why not both of us? then, I look at our parents and think, they needed one of us, and I guess I chose to stay Angel of Darkness 9/9/2000 |

Mmy. My dear sweet friend...she's back haunting your heart hon? She is always there, with you. I know it. You have heard her. I am sorry for your pain, for the missing you feel of someone you never knew who should've been the closest one to you in your life. This is a beautiful tribute to her. Hold her to you hon and like Becs said you will know one day, why. Love K |
