Sudden Loss

10 years ago Tragedy came into play, Unfortunately for our family You could no longer stay. For you were truly special and must have been needed above, To always watch over the ones that you love. “He only takes the best” people would often say Well he took the most beautiful On that god awful day. Why he chose you then I will never fully know, You had so much life in you You just weren’t ready to go. But I have to believe That there was a reason why You were taken so suddenly Without the chance to say goodbye. As the wind whispers My name I hear you say And when I feel upset My tears you wipe away. I will never know the reason Our lives had to change that day All I truly know is you’re never far away. For when I speak you listen As we aren’t actually apart Because my beautiful cousin You will always be in my heart
