Not Forgotten

life taken so suddenly... and painfully so, no time to satisfy desires of togetherness. happiness to unexpected fear, emotions flow... remorse , love , compassion, desolateness. her words haunt my memory , " i never thought this year would come to this ." i sat , staring into her eyes , nearly motionless ... distraught . suffering of pain ...... my heart tearing. external beauty fading by loss of hair and weight. bones deteriorating quickly. everyday abilities ...gone. worries of what's to come. my father , her soulmate , by her side ... august 10th..she's taken at dawn. to this day , it still doesn't seem real . i find myself expecting to be greeted by her whenever i return 'home' . and although i have told her goodbye , she shall remain in my life forever. my dad , my brother and i were all with her as she passed.... ....we all miss her dearly.
