A Poem for Sammy
I heard today that you had passed away,
I thought for so long i was prepared for this day.
It's just so awful that this had to occur,
The moment I was told, was all a blur.
The teachers were sad, the students were too,
When we thought about what you had been through.
The memories of you flashed in our minds,
And the sympathy for those you had left behind.
Our eyes instantly filled up with tears,
As we remembered the previous years.
The big bright smile you always displayed,
That never for an instant seemed to fade.
Another thing that stuck in my head,
Is the constant cheer & joy you always spread.
Even though a visit is long overdue,
I will see you when my time here is through.
Until that day i will say for you,
Everyday a prayer or two.
We love you Sammy, dont ever forget,
We will meet again, dont you fret.
So be paitent now and watch over me,
While you are with God in the world above me.

------------------------------------------------------------ Tell Me "Why?"
Please God, tell me why,
Friends Have to Die,
It's not fair, and it's not right,
Oh God , why that night?
I didn't think life could end so fast,
You were so young, but your years didn't last.
Now it's too late to say good bye,
Please god, tell me, "Why?"
Even if your soul is flying free,
Now your dreams can never be.
Teen's aren't sopposed to die,
I need an answer, God. Please tell me, "Why?"
Maybe life isn't what it seems,
And not all teens get their dreams,
I know we're all meant to someday die,
Still God, I have to ask you, "Why?"
------------------------------------------------------------ In Loving Memory
I lay here quietly thinking of the day,
The one day in winter when you went away.
The angels in heaven came down from above,
To take away the pain, and shower you with love.
Yes, I admit that i did cry,
Oh how i cried when they put you to rest,
But yet deep in my heart,
I reassured myself that it was for the best
In this present time,
I don't have to worry,
No one could ever take your place,
You can not be replaced,
the memories can never be erased.
I know that one day,
when it is time,
The angels will come for me,
and i will cross the line
Enter the gate,
to be with you again,
No i wont be late
I won't be scared,
I wont moan,
Because I know you are happy there,
I wont be alone.
So until that day,
when the light shines my way,
on earth i'll stay.
Trying not to sin, or be sad deep within,
Because i know one day soon,
we'll be together again.

------------------------------------------------------------ I woke up thinking it was just another day,
But I was terribly wrong.
I found out you had passed away,
After being strong and fighting for so long.
I knew you were hurting,
But yet you wouldnt cry,
I knew that you were suffering,
I could see the pain in your eye.
You were a wonderful person to all,
Filled with so much pride.
I would have kept you here forever,
But it was up to God to decide.
You meant so much to all of us,
You were special, thats no lie.
You brightened up the darkest day,
And the cloudiest sky.
Youre no longer here with us,
What a good man heaven did gain.
I know that you are happy now,
No longer living in pain
I must keep telling myself,
Youre in heaven with God now
Deep down in my heart I know,
Well be together somehow.
Not a second passes,
When youre not on my mind.
Your love I will never forget
The hurt will ease with time.
I know youre still with me,
Forever In my heart.
Our love will never die
Even while were apart.
I love you Grandpa.
