My Sister

by mary   May 9, 2004


I sit on the grass
And continue to cry
I won’t accept leaving you in the past
You’ll never leave my mind
How do people move on
Like they never existed
I can’t be strong
Because my sister is now a statistic
She was my best friend
And my sister too
We had no idea your life would end
And how depressed I’d be over you
You were hit by a drunk driver
And killed instantly at the sight
Cops see things like this all the time
But I never knew it would affect my life
You lived a wonderful life
A perfect child
And never started strife
You were the best sister in the world
Every moment I spent with you was special
But the tables had turned
Now you’re just in a wooden box
Your laughter, smile, and fun
Has all disappeared
Your life is done
We never knew the end was near
The person that buried you
Doesn’t care who you are
They’re just doing their job
Because they’re probably just saving up for a car
But that’s a part of me six feet underground
Ever since you left
My life was turned around
All the fun times we used to share
Are gone forever
And my feelings I can’t bare
How can I go in your room and just look at your stuff?
I hate when people say it’ll be okay
Because its just not enough
How can I go in our favorite store and see that shirt you wanted to buy?
How can I go to school and see that boy that you liked?
How can I turn on the radio and hear your favorite song?
How can I live without my sister when she didn’t even live long?
How can I turn to you when I need advice?
How come a man made a stupid decision and you had to pay the price?
People will pass by your grave and not care whose inside
But that was my role model in there
Ill never leave you behind
Who do I look up to for advice about guys?
Who do I talk to when mom or dad make me cry?
I would do anything to take your place
Because I cant live any longer
Without seeing your face
At least you’re resting in peace
And not living with hate
You only lived for 18 years
We were supposed to grow up together
Now I have unstoppable tears
I look at you tombstone
And continue to cry
Now you’re home
But you left me behind
