This page and poems go out to my sister,
she maybe gone but she is not forgotten. I miss you



You are not there


I sit, staring out the window, waiting for you to pop out from around the corner. But you are not there.

When I wake up after a dream, I run to your room to share it with you. But you are not there.

When I have a great day , I rush home to tell you all about it.
But you are not there.

When I'm sad and need someone to cheer me up, I look for you.
But you are not there.

I search and search for you every where, the places we use to play as kids. But you are not there.

I run through a field, with the sun shining down. The grass is a brilliant green. But you are not there.

I run up the grassy hill to where the light is the brightest and warmest.
BUT YOU ARE THERE!

I have found you at last. We talk, we run in the sun, we laugh, we cry, we share our secrets. You slowly start to slip away. WAIT!, come back. I never got to tell you that I looked-up to you, you were my best friend. I never got to say good-bye. You are fading away into the mist, I can hardly see you any more. Must you go? There is so much more I want to say to you. There are so many things I never got to say. I can barely see you, don't go! Suddenly you are gone, I'm all alone but it is different this time. I don't feel the sadness I felt before, it is more of a peaceful feeling. I realize you were never there. It was just a dream and you are not there. I wake-up to realize I finally got to say good-bye.

Once in a Life Time



Once in a life time
we meet someone special
Who changes our lives
They win over our love
No matte what happens
For good and for bad

Once in a Life time
We have someone special
TO share our lives with
And talk through the bad times with
They help us through the sad times
No matter what has been said

Once in a life time
This person is taken from us
Which changes our lives for ever
Now our lives are lives are so empty
We're so full of sadness
But no matter what happens
Our love for this person
Will see us through this
heartship that has fallen upon us!
