You Were {rip Verna}

You were my moms best friend
and like a sister to me beacuse
you acted so young and you will always
be i know your dead but a part of you
yet remains ill always miss your jokes
and the times you sang.

I never wouldve thought
you would leave o so soon until
you did now what am i to do 
I keep asking god why did he
take you away maybe it was
for the best hope you enjoy the race.

You were only 33 but i guess
ill never know i pray for you 
every night until tomorrow..............

You had two boys that will
miss you indeed but i have to keep
fighting beacause its all right with the king

I know you are resting until we
met one last time i hope you
rest enough because we gotta
joke when i make it where you
are.

 So we wont shead 1 tear
or make a sad little frown
because well see you ont he 
other side when we all make it there.
