Funeral Poems : Lonely Without You Sis

Funeral Poems for a Sister

Days are so lonely Kate
since you went away
Nights are much darker
I know that's how they'll stay.

The sun is not as warm now
when it shines on me
and the cold seems so much colder
than what it used to be.

Smiles do not light my face
like they used to do before
the greatest times are in the past
they cannot be no more.

My thoughts often take a stroll
away down memory lane
and as I walk around a bend
I see your angel face again.

Rolling tides of yesterday
wash wonderful memories of you ashore
and as I gently sift through each one
my aching heart feels very sore.

Life changed all too quickly
when your glowing light went out
lonely, stranger, so much duller
is what it's now about.

"Happy" is not like it used to be
"Sad" feels much worse too
"Pain is so much stronger
when I stop and think of you.

Our family chain has been broken
three times now it is true
but I miss that shining piece of chain
that linked me so much to you.

Life goes on I know it does
you, mam and dad help me through
but life will never be as nice
as life was when I had you XXX
