"Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is mystery, Today is a gift." Eleanor Roosevelt


Love can not be grown by just a plant seed;

     My older half-sister was quite silly,

In life, love is what you will always need; 

     She will always be my special Lily.

I should not be feeling so blue deep down;

     But it is hard knowing that she is gone,

Even though she has left my happy town;

     I will always wake up every dawn.

She eill forever be in my big heart;    

     It is hard not being able to see,

It's hard knowing we are living apart;

     But Lily is exactly just like me.

Although I will not see my Lily soon,

     I know she will always be in the moon.

I wrote this freshman year in my English class during our Shakspear section and I wrote it after my sister died. I wrote it about three to five days after my sister passed away.
