One More Time (For Sheila Robles)A Poem by mjsalyersA friend of mine who I grew up with who saved my life by not letting me give up. She passed away at 19 years old from the cancer that did not allow her to leave the cancer center since she was 4.You lay there like an angel who has put her eyes to rest . With a final touch we remember everything that you loved best . You lay there in a silence that's too loud for us to break . You were more than just a friend of our's and this is all that we can take . Yes , we did adore you and yes , we tried to move you . Now the memories are screaming in our minds .... Yes , we tried to amuse you and yes , we cared about you . Now , we've gathered to show you we love you one more time .... You synchronised the heatache that we all feel tonight . We are forced to say goodbye now till we reach the other side . I am glad we were blessed to know you we're all glad that you were here But , none of us ever dreamed that such a light would disappear . Yes , we did adore you and yes , we tried to move you . Now the memories are screaming in our minds .... Yes , we tried to amuse you yes , we cared about you . Now , we've gathered to show you we love you one more time .... Yes , we all adored you yes , the love was clean . We all hope to waken and find it was all a dream . Yes , we cared about you you were a friend we were lucky to find . Now , we gather to tell you we love you one more time .... There were times that we abused you and times we did'nt beleive . My friend , I'm sorry we lost you but at least now you are free .... Yes , I did adore you and yes , I tried to move you . Now the memories are screaming in my mind .... Yes , I tried to amuse you yes , I cared about you . Now , I have come here to tell you I love you one more time .... One more time .... One more time ......... © 2015 mjsalyersAuthor's Note
