To all the people we loved and lost to death.....

As I look up at the sky
I remember the way things used to be...
  (Just you and me)
You held me tight when I would cry
You tried to teach me how to be dependent,
And there were times when I did not agree with you.
One day we fought, with words that stung
I was just a little spoiled girl, you my dearest friend
Abd if only I knew of what to come
It wouldn't have happened at all
On that day you left me before you moved
Preparing yourseld for a trip back home
As I cried all night, home in bed all alone
And as my mother told me what was done,
A peice of my heart broke off, jsut one
You were going home to die
Taking a trip back to where you were born
To lay back down in the ground with your family line....

                                                       The Last Ime I saw you was brief,
                                                       You were still here, just not back home
                                                       Your smiling eyes dull, this to the bone
                                                       Body wasting away before my eyes
                                                       All I did was hug you tight
                                                       And when You left I said good bye
                                                       Not trully knowing it was the last,
                                                       Before the plane took you back home
                                                       To lay peacefully int he ground
                                                       Of the land where you were born
                                                       Laying 6ft below the surface light,
                                                       Even though we may never meet again...

...And I will never know when you left this land
And this may be the only time I may see you
Let me hold you in my arms
To stand on my tiptoes like the little kid I was years ago
And still the little kid that lost today
Let me whisper in your ear
Goodby my dear friend
 

                                                    I
                                                       Love
                                                              You
