Memory Lingers Still...
It has been 26 years without you, my sister
Your memory will in my heart forever linger
Your death 26 years ago left me with blister
My emotions came pouring down with no filter
I dream every night hoping in my ears you can whisper
You were cut off so young and not given the privilege of having a mister
Death, where is thy sting? Why did you pull the trigger?
This is a strong blow below the belt for me, what a kicker
If wishes were horses, right here with me, you, I will prefer
Time heals all wounds but my memory of you hasn't gone dimmer
If only there is a visitation hour for a brief moment in heaven, I'd come for dinner
Holding your hand in the beautiful place amidst the glimmer
The thoughts of this alone down my spine it sends shiver
It is another year without you to reach
I can't believe it's already 26 years
Every day, there are no new word of yours to preach
Remembering you, your thoughts bring me to tears
But still, within me I have what you teach
Your beautiful smile still drive away all my fears
Your are better, nourishing and sweeter than the peach
You stood out among your peers
Your memory still looks fresh like yesterday
You were snatched away without a goodbye
Your smile will forever be etched in my heart
You are soft, tender, gentle and kindhearted
With me and how I hold you dear, you have not departed
And I carry you everywhere I go
And not a year passes without your thought dearest sister
You might be gone but you are never forgotten
Sing with the angels dearest, since you were one when you were here on earth
A day less to singing alongside you forever in the gold city
Sometimes, people come in like a breeze then roll out like a storm
Your passing was felt by all and hits worse than a storm
I love you.
Thank you for your time.
My pen doesn't bleed, it speaks, with speed and ease.
Still me,
My tongue is like the pen of a ready writer.

She still lives on in your heart and I am so sure she is resting where she is. She is also so proud of who you have actually become and who you will become. Sometimes, loss like that when it involves our love ones and families can really be hard to take in. Be strong man, she is resting in a much more better place than this earth that is filled with worries
She's away from the struggles and worries of life...in a better place where there is no tears. To God be the Glory. Thank you very much for that.
Perfectly well. I am so happy for her that she is really away from the struggles and the worries of this life and that is actually important also. I believe so much she is really in a much more better place to be actually
She's in a much better place and away from the stress of life. She's missed, no doubt but to God be praised.
Yea even though she is missed. But all glory be to God because at the end of the day, God name is been glorified
I hope your sister rests in peace wherever she is
It’s sad but you just have to accept it that way
That's the sad reality, we have to accept it. 26 years is a long time but still her memory lingers. Thanks dear.
May her soul continue resting in peace...
Death sometimes leave a hole that never gets filled up no matter how hard we try especially when the person in question lived a good life
Take heart friend
Thank you for that. Indeed, death is the last enemy and we just have to deal with life as it comes.
This is magical....may her soul rest in perfect and heavenly peace.. that was beautiful man
What comes from the heart touches the heart...she was special and deserves the best even in death. Thank you.
. most welcome
What can I say to make you feel better, I understand what you feel, my mother died in 2012 and I always remember her, you learn to live with this, but you never forget.
The words you say about being able to enter heaven for a while make me feel moved, I imagine it and it would be wonderful, but think that you would have to return to earth and the absence would be much more, let's let them be in heaven with GOD, They are happy there, your sister and my mother
Thank you, brother. Yes, I want to believe they are in a better place. Yes, I know you can relate because you have lost someone close to you too which is your mum. We keep them close in our memories.
Very nice and touching poem my friend, we know when we are born but not when we leave, it is a beautiful tribute to your sister, I have always thought that when you have a person very present in your memory and in your heart is that she is not yet completely gone, she must be proud of the great man you are, she is in a much better place than this, thank you for sharing this with us and much strength my friend ♥
Thank you, my friend. Yes, she's always in my memory and I am holding on to the wonderful memories we have shared whole growing up. God bless you, my friend.
That is the most important thing of all my brother, always keep in one way or another your legacy and your way of being, life can be a little unfair at times but we must always cling to God at all times to give us the strength we need to move forward, I wish you twice as many blessings you wish me my friend ♥
Thank you very much, my friend. Double blessing to you and all yours too. I hope the week is going great for you? Have a blessed week my friend. Stay blessed.
Thank you my dear brother, so far my week has been very good thanks to God, I wish you many beautiful and wonderful things in this great week that is passing you also remain very blessed, I wish you always all the best for you and yours ♥
Thank you very much, my friend. Deeply and always appreciate you. Stay blessed always.
Very sad poem
Many people have to lose in life. She is still alive in your heart. Hug her tight because memory will never leave you
She's alive in my thoughts, my mind and memory, no doubt. She's gone but never forgotten. Thank you for that.
Her soul is resting in peace.
It's well.
God is with her
Amen. Thank you very much and this is much appreciated. I am grateful.
Another year has come but losing someone doesn't get easy with time sometimes. Memories will play on our minds as we remember the last smile, the last talk and moments with them. Stay strong and keep making everyone proud.
It's never easy losing anyone and it doesn't get better as they say even though I know time helps but still, we keep replaying the last moments we have with them in our head and cling on to it for as long as we can.
We constantly replay their last word, their last laugh and moments in our head. It never goes away no matter how hard we try. We can take comfort in that fact that they are still with us in mind.
You absolutely nailed it on the head. Thanks for this. You gave good insight into this and captured the true feeling of the poem. Thank you.
There are just some memories that we can not actually live out easily. They will continue to live in our heart for so many years. I belong she is resting in a perfect place right now. That place is quite better than the earth we live in right now actually
Those memories stay with us and there is that deep void left with their presence but we keep pushing and hold them close in our hearts.
They are really precious memories that money can not buy and as far as we are actually alive, we will keep treasuring those moments because they are really so special to us and hold a very special place in our hearts also
Very true...indeed, money can't buy these memories and we need to hold them very close to our hearts. That's life.
You are right. In fact we need to understand that not everything that money can really buy. We actually need to be careful of the type of memories we established. That's actually life for us most of the time. Memories can really come in a very diverse moment that we don't even imagine of
It is a fact that when our loved ones leave this world, we always remember them as much as time passes. In the same way, time is passing very quickly, in the same way, yesterday we were 10 years old and today we are 25 years old, so time is passing very fast. Life has to be lived.
Time is passing by quickly and from that time till now, I can't believe it is already 26 years gone but I thank God for strength and the courage. She's in a much better place. Thank God.
It is just like that, time is passing quickly but we should thank God in every situation that we are living a good and healthy life and that Allah has given us good hands and feet, so this is a great blessing.
To God be the Glory. We can't question God. We keep going and hold on to every memory for as long as we can. Thank you, my friend.
This is a fact, we cannot ask any question, but we can do what we are told to do in life, we can work hard, we can have faith in God, then that is why we will definitely succeed.
Work hard, have Faith in God, live and create as many memories as you can. Life is short and what we do is what counts and would be remembered.
So of course life is too short, in the same way we should believe in God and work hard day and night, then one day it will surely come that we will be so successful that the whole world will know us.
