I Never Got to Tell You

I Never Got to Tell You

A Poem by Kathryn Star, Shine!
"

My twins death and my broken heart... never got to say goodbye.

"

I understood your pain,

Living each day, laying each night in fright

Did I tell you that I loved you?

Oh, yes I did, two nights before your were murdered

By your husband that was completely evil,

I never got to say goodbye to you,

Only the night that you died,

When you woke me up as we talked,

Thinking only it was a telephone conversation,

You were a ghost, telling me you die,

I never realized that you were gone and this would be

Our final goodbye...

Yet when I look back and now understand the words you shared and how I couldn't comprehend,

You said, "Look up at my casket."

Never wanting to believe that I had to say the final words,

It was your call to me

When I saw you in the coffin

My heart was broken,

I cried and sobbed until there were no more tears,

I layed beside your coffin like a dog waiting for their owner,

Even when the furneral began,

Seeing all the people who attend

Did they really know what you had been through,

Your emotional scars,

The pain you endured most of your life,

Yet as I spoke about your life,

I gave joy that you were born,

That I had the chance to be your twin,

God graced me with your being,

For those fakers who never knew,

The insight I saw in you,

They will never see,

The true love and dignity you gave to this world,

So I say goodbye with a tear and a smile,

Always remembering our days growing up,

Thanking God that we had our time,

I guess God needed you more than me,

She is happy now,

Someday I'll see her

When I do I'll run,

Hold her,

Love her,

She was my twin...

My twin sister and I had a horrible childhood. We were taken from home to home, then adopted to the most evil people in the world... how can this happen. At least we were kept together, until her death... RIP

I hope the idiot who did this to her pays for what he did . . .

That being said . . . your writing is as lovely as always. Filled with sincerity, and deep feelings. I am certain that very few that attended her funeral will know all the details, though they should ALL understand the loss of beauty. I could never comprehend how someone could elevate themselves to the point of belittling someone elses value enough to kill them for the sake of pride. That is the work of an empty soul.

Someday you two will be together again, but as the saying goes, "there is no greater tribute to lives lost, than to live your life well"

Kathryn, these words that are of pain and felt by only the depth of your soul...Will anyone really understand the truest depth of pain you have felt over your twin sisters death. There is a God and he feels your pain. I believe this. This canvas of a tribute to your sister is very heartfelt and my prayers will always be with you.

(Remember This) and I say this from my heart to yours and with lots of love...Every time you look in the mirror, you not only see your self but, you also see your twin sister my dear and the memories will continue to live on....Putting away the bad ones and keeping the good ones alive.

Love Ya!

This speaks to me so deeply. I am not sure how to explain exactly what this piece made me feel and think as I am almost at a lost for words which rarely happens. The intensely interesting thing about this piece is the simply gesture of compassion that was felt as I read line after line the involvement of myself with the words and thoughts it conveyed to me. Always a pleasure to emerge myself in your world of words.



Great Job!!!!!!!
