We often lay awake at night
While others are asleep
No one knows our sorrow
No one hears us weep
It's been many long years 'now'
Since God took you's away
'But' We still feel your presence
And 'that is' every day
May the 'wings of love' blow gently
And 'whisper' for you's to hear
For we shall always love you's
And forever hold you's dear
We know what's in our hearts
And 'that's' coming from above
That you 'both' showed courage and compassion
And you 'both' showed loyalty and love
We may be far apart now
And not be able to touch
For we can only 'feel' and 'say'
We loved you's very much
In life we loved you's dearly
In death we'll do the same
So stay in our hearts and memories
Until we meet again
Amen

I wrote this poem dedicated to 2 beautiful girls who died in a house fire. One was my niece Leah aged 14 and the other her brothers fiance Vicky aged 19.
