You Now Belong To Heaven

I was waiting for you With an open arms Your arrivals was such a happiness That I was longing for You left this world Before you even seen it This was the deepest sorrow I ever had It really tear me apart I had so many dreams for you That just gone with the wind Without achieving anything The bible says... ...never ask the Lord why But, everything that happens Happen for a reason I never get the chance To tell you that I Love you Neither to hold in my arms I never had the chance To prove to you That I am your protector Your role model A shoulder for you to cry on Someone that you can rely on I was so happy to receive A new born in our family But the day that I welcome you Was that same day that I say... ...goodbye, farewell to you forever You now belong to heaven May your soul rest in peace You will always be love and missed sadly May the Good Lord Bless and keep you always I wrote this poem for my little sister who died during birth.

Really touching Shirley.But you know what they say?"Whom God loves dearly ,he makes die young". I'm sure little sister is there,safe in the hands of the man who changed history forever. Etched immortally in the minds of the living and the dead,he will never be forgotten for an undying love for both saints and sinners. God Bless U and baby sister, Prince
