She sings the same song every time,

but there is a new meaning every time.

Her voice like honey,

as she sings you are my sunshine,

my only sunshine.

I feel her hair brush against my cheek

as she hold me close.

Her grapefruit purfume smells sweet,

like heavan on earth.

You make me happy,

when skies are gray.

I close my eyes to go to sleep

not knowing I will never hear it again

you never know dear,

how much I love you.

Please dont take my sunshine away.

I wrote this about my meme. If you where a loved one she would sing this song to you. My meme was a role model to me and many others and will always be one.
