*****************************************
Knowing that your Afar
Nothing will ever take you out of my heart Since the day you went away
My heart has been longing to say I love you even thogh you're gone today.
I cry so may tears at night Hoping you would come back our way,
Then I asked Qod why such a blow to the heart
But He said, "Have I ever failed you yet?" So I cry and laugh at the memories of you,
while I remember that you're in glory Smiling down, looking at me.
In loving memory your sister,
Priscilla Alexander
