A Letter To Patti ( My sister )
I don’t think I ever said goodbye.
I don’t think I ever want to try.
So what does that say about me?
It’s been so long,
you don’t know how
I miss you and still love you .
Me knowing you so ,
you holding me,
your warmth against me
and………….
I don’t think I ever said goodbye and
even though I never said those words,
I somehow couldn’t even try,
I couldn’t even try.
I was your baby.
You loved me,
you hugged me,
you kissed me
and you made me your own.
You lit up and opened my world.
My little eyes saw your light.
You gave me nothing but the purest love……
It breaks my heart that
I never said goodbye,
yet in my heart
there was no need,
as I’ll never let you go.
so there’s no need
to ever say goodbye.
You were a baby yourself
but the love you gave to me
melted my tiny baby heart.
A goodbye would be useless.
I’m sure I never want to try.
Today, my heart skipped a beat.
I lost my breath and cried a while.
I saw your photograph,
I love you sister,
your pretty smile,
your lovely face.
Was it Mom or Dad I see
in your sweet sweet smile ?
Who’s to say how life will go?
You’ve been gone so long
and I still miss you so.
You held my heart so long ago.
You still have my heart today
and I know you always will.
