where we want to be


Sickness killed your body but not your swag.

Messed with your insides but not your personality.

You kept a smile on your face and encouraged others to do the same.

Even though you are gone you are never forgotten.

I mean honestly, who can forget such a cute face with a swag out of this world.

 You are truly loved if you didn’t know.

I’m trying to keep this pain and hurt very low.

But it’s hard to see someone you love pass away.

Gone before we knew it, forget about you.. we could never do it.

As sad as it is to say goodbye I won’t because goodbye is forever.

I’m just gonna say I’ll see you later, because it helps ease the pain.

Glassy by the eyes because I want to cry not because your gone but because you were so young.

But I guess you saw as much of life as god wanted you to see.

So I won’t question his authority.

You will forever be in our hearts.

Especially when we prey to and for you in the dark.

You are always with us so your not really gone.

And when I think of you I’ll just sing you a song from the heart.

Leaving this place praying for your family,  that god will stay with them through this tragedy.

Sad to say rest in peace but at least your where we want to be.

tumblr?? yes i own one, its my way of directly expressing my feelings indirectly i'm just a young woman seeking a way of expression so i don't have to always sulk in my depression so i write as an escape from the pain and tears, you don't have to like my writing or feel where i'm coming from but you will be able to see a little insight of my thoughts the least you can do is respect that.
