My friend, Mr. David Wright, wrote this poem in tribute to two young children who died in a tragic house fire in La Porte, Texas last Sunday. I wish their family and friends all the love, time, and support they need to heal.
"Love Never Dies"
This can't be real, It isn't just denial.
I can still hear you laughing, I can still
see your smile.
There's no way you can be gone, you were
just right there.
This morning I hear birds singing, I see
the wind in your hair.
How can this happen to such precious little
souls
To never fulfill their dreams, to never
reach their goals.
Like a thief in the night You tore our
lives apart.
Left our community weeping, and full of
broken hearts.
Just give me one more chance to roll back
the hands of time.
Get me up so I can get them out then
everything would be just fine.
Please give them back, they deserve so many
more years.
It would be so easy to mend the broken
hearts, and wipe away all these tears.
Today is weighing heavy, I'm not sure I can
last.
Trying to fight back the tears, but my
strength is fading fast.
I turn to go to work, but sorrow replaces
my cares.
Overwhelmed by the vision of a charred
home, Balloons and Teddy Bears.
God has called two angels to be with Him in
a better place.
Our lives must move on, but we will never
forget your face.
There will be many long days "without
you my friend."
"And I'll tell you all about it when I
see you again."
