Family and Friends
Where does the time go
Why do family members
And friends have to leave us
Endless questions, I'm so tired
I want to go to sleep too
I remember so vividly as a child
Family members and friends
So clearly
Yet, as each day passes
Their images fade a little more
In my mind
My mother, daddy, aunts, uncles,
Cousins, and friends
And endless sea of faces in
Front of me
Wishing I could speak to them again
Wondering what they'd have to tell me
Knowing one day in the future,
Some of us will meet again
