Gina -02/18/1970 - 01/01/2009-

Sleep was so far away leaving in it's wake
the knowledge that today was going to be so hard

and with a sigh it was more than hard
feeling the grief to your very depth of oneself
the question would arise
why - just why

soberly, I would go with the friends that in
one year, you brought together
and two by two we walked up to you.

This was our final goodbye

there were days that slipped away
having brought so much sorrow
with stunning amazement that left us bare
to our very soul

as we sat with time to ponder our thoughts
and the many seconds to reflect so many events
they all featured you, just being Gina

and on the wide screen there were multiple
visions of you in so many various stages
as one slipped into another one
we sat and watched your life come together
