Beauty in my eyes
Sweetness in my life
Almost a daughter to me
You came behind me
Chemistry was not good to you
Your care thrust upon me
I was still such a child myself
I did what I could
I did my best
In and out of my reality
you came and went
until the day
that day
when that man tore your lifeforce from my bosom
that phone call
immense pain
every year I avoid this day
a month before mine
this day when the pain descends again
strangling my heart
crushing my mind
but I know you are an angel
with gossamer wings
You float through my life
and comfort me with your love
Still to have one more day with you
My sister, my jewel, my love
Today would have been my sister's fourty-ninth birthday. To be honest I have washed my mind of the date that she was stolen from us by the man who did not pay for this crime. But, every year on her birthday I mourn her loss. She was exactly two years and eleven months to the day younger than I am. I avoid this day because of the pain, but it is someone else's birthday on Gather and it reminded me. I know many of you have dealt with the same sadness, have lost loved ones to violence. This is dedicated to my sister and to all of the ones you have lost through the violence of others. Wherever you are my dearest sweet sister, I love you and always will.

He sings to me sometimes, my little brother. When I forget to forget.
Sweetness and Light visit, moved on the air, and harmonies erupt with gentleness.
We are blessed to have had them in our lives.
Be at peace, big sister, be at peace.

I WANT TO REMEMBER, NOT FORGET, HOW SPECIAL MY DAD WAS
AS WAS YOUR SISTER, I AM SURE...
Hugs and blessings in abundance - S.
Until we all know directly though it is only a faint touch of hope... so with love and the blessings of God I hug you and say thanks for being my friend. I miss her with you.
Heal as you can and please know that many love you... and you were greatly missed while you were away from Gather.
Take it easy today. Love, C. Isis
That was wonderfully written. I am sorry for your loss
How lucky your sister was to have you in her life and to be so loved!
I am so very sorry for your loss and I know that even after so many years have passed that pain is still very deeply felt in your soul. By feeling that pain and also by writing of the great love that you have for her, you are showing us all just how special of a person you are. Your sister had you and your love in her life for many years. Although "many years" was not as much as you or she would have wanted it to be, one thing is for sure and that is that during those years she knew that she was loved by you and that is a gift that gave her happiness while she was here in the physical world and happiness that she carried with her into the spititual world.
If you do not mind my asking, do you mind telling what happened to her? If it is painful for you or makes you uncomfortable, please do not even worry about it.
Blessings ~
