For My Sister

You took her from us on a cold 
October day.
With out warning she just went away.

She didn't get to see 
her children grow
And my smallest one 
she will never know

We miss so much about her
each and every day
and if given a choice
we would have asked for her to stay

But this was your decision
this we know is true
but I wish  God you would have realized 
we loved her to.
