You told me you'd always be here
Friends forever is what you said
We were supposed to be together forever
You got a bad disease
You were to be here always

Friends forever you'd say
Together forever
You got really sick
Stayed in the hospital for a while
You were to be here always

We promised to always be together
You broke that promise when you left to be with the Heavenly father
I couldn't believe you left
Friends forever you'd say
Supposed to be together forever

How could you leave me here alone
I can't believe you're gone
Friends forever you promised
You weren't to be the first to go
Lying on your death bed
Singing church songs
We were supposed to go together
To be in a good place

Friends forever
You promised
Together forever


Dedicated to my grandmother and her sister.  My aunt died of cancer.  They were supposed to die on the same day, but God wanted her then.  Rest In Peace, love, Michelle

I like the variations in stanza size towards the end, the last one especially.  It was a good way to bring the whole poem to an ending point.     Good job on this.

My condolences......
great tribute to the both of them.
I liked the poem.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

Such a sad piece... I couldn't imagine losing anyone extremely close to me. This is a wonderful tribute to your aunt and grandmother. Thanks for sharing.
