How To Live(In memory of Cori McBride)

My step sister. whom was in a tragic atv/tree accident 5 days ago was declared dead at midnight yesterday. Only 15, hadn't even graduated school. taken away from us far to soon:-(

You taught us how to live. How to be positive

No matter how tough you always knew how to give

had so much love to to show. and now the good lord

above picked you up and brought you home. 

Pulled you away from your own. leaving your love ones 

to deal alone. 

We are lost without you here. It has brought fourth 

so many tears. If only you could be right here

We hold you close. So near and dear

We will never forget, i don't regret one moment. 

i will forever remember the day that we had met

And i never knew than' how much you would truly effect 

I never knew or or understood how much you truly meant

But now you are gone i cannot stress or confess how much i truly miss

All of my blessings, prayers, love, and appreciation is being sent, 

and the fact is

You taught us how to live. How to be positive. No matter how tough

you always knew how to give. You had so much love to show. But now, 

now the good lord has picked you up and taken you home

We are left all alone. We love you, we miss you so..

I am so sorry for your loss. Beautiful and heartfelt poem. I love how you repeated the first part of the poem in the last poem. Thoughts and prayers to you and your family. May your sister rest in peace.
