I always thought that when it came I'd be ready for the end. By that time I'd be resigned and tame, Death would appear a welcome friend.

But what if I still want to live, Still want to learn and grow? What if I still have gifts to give, and I'm not yet ready to go?

What is I'm too young still, not old enough to die? What if I want to wait till I've experienced life to say goodbye?

You were way too young
You were taken too soon
Your time had just begun
The sun of your life set at noon.

Wherever you have gone
Nearby or faraway
Please realize, that with you
a piece of me died that day. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 163 [topic] => 55 [informant] => julu [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => dedicatedpoems )

I am so very sorry for your loss. Please accept my heartfelt condolescences. It doesn't seem like much now but in time you will appreciate all the memories you have of her. She is still with you in spirit.
