Sweet Sixteen

by Anonymous   Feb 10, 2010


Sometimes I just sit and think about
Why God took you away so soon
Why life has to be so unfair
Yet everything happens for a reason
And God's purpose is to teach us a lesson

The night we lost you broke us all to pieces
You were gone forever
And only time will heal the pain
And put the broken pieces together

It's so hard to live without you
None of us can accept the fact that you are actually gone
We wish that we could wake up just to find it all a dream
But then reality hits us just to prove us wrong

We know nothing in this world would ever bring you back
Yet everyday we wake up looking forward to seeing you again
But what we look forward to is impossible
Because now you're high up above in heaven

So here we are left with only memories
Of how things were back then
Flashbacks of that unforgettable night seem to never disappear
They just keep playing in our heads over and over again

Just a while ago you were blowing out the candles
On your sweet sixteen, making your wish
This pain is too much to handle
You didn't even get a chance to fulfill your dreams

That's life- it'll take away the closest
And most important things from you when you least expect it
And you can't do anything about it
That's why we have to learn to accept it

The memory that we will always cherish
Is the time when we were together on April 14
Because you were with us for the last time
And thats what hurts the most
Because no one wanted it to be the last

Who knew that those would be the last few minutes of your life?
That that would be the day you would take your last breath?
Who knew that there would be an accident on April 14?
And the last birthday you would ever get a chance to celebrate
Would be your sweet sixteen?
