I
remember the day,
Not
wanting to say,
Goodbye,
it was too quick,
The illness
that made you sick,
And
stole your breath away,
Took
time away,
Time to
laugh and say,
We are
sisters, bound by blood,
And remembrances
of childhood,
I cried
for the relationship we could have had,
All of
this makes me so sad,
That
you were taken away,
You
should have many other days.
But
today I remember joys,
Days of
love and toys,
Birthdays
long ago like today,
Were we’d
run and play,
When we
spent time together.
My
sister, like birds of a feather.
We had
time on our side.
Before
you died.
Happy Birthday Sis! Love you still missing you.
