She came
like a breath of air
Made her impacts
on the sands of time
Those cherished laughs and smile
Gone to behold no more
The time so long
But short it is
How I long For your Presence
To lighten my mood
You were imperfectly perfect
What a smile God cherished you with
In a split second It lights up a room
What a generosity
you were gifted with
I hardly found faults
in you an epitome of benevolence
Who am I to blame you
For leaving so soon
When the ovation was loudest
You were a ray of hope
When all seemed lost
You are a testament
to not how long
But how well
Though I long for that smile
Never to be seen no more
Though I long for that day
Hoping to come across you
Though I wish at times
To glance at your shadow
if just for a day
But never to be seen no more
Your life was toyed with
By our negligent drivers
Days of crying
never brought you back
They wanted to urinate
was all that is responsible for this
Leaving a hollow in our hearts
because there responsibilities were ignored
Endangering peoples lives
on the highway
Alas the truck of death
was close by
Ramming into you In the car
And snuffing the innocent life
out of you
Thought you survived
For days I had hope
In the midst of hopelessness
You were not a victim
Alas the danger had been done
Your gentle spirit
Could not fathom the fright
Stealing you away
From this earth untimely
Drops of tears
Have not helped my cause
The pain I feel
Is measurably immeasurable
Your body spreadth on the highway
Like a bedsheet laid
Ready to be slept on
Who can I hold
Who can I fault
Just have to accept it
As the will of God
Though you are no more
You live in our hearts
Your impact will never be forgotten
I hold on to the fact
With hope that you are with christ
Cause that's what make me hopelessly hopeful
That's what wipes my tears
In those dark moments
Till that day
When the maker shall appear In the sky
Sleep well
How I wish my stream of tears
Will just run dry
Missing you hopelessly
it seems like yesterday
Like yesterday it will always seem
Cause you will always be engraved in my heart
Till that day I hope to see you
When christ shall return
And we will live to die no more
And reign with him eternally
*to my cousin who lost her life in a ghastly motor accident*
