Dear Kenzi,
i read your letter today
it really happened
you really left me
vanished
as if you were
never here
but you were
and i never told you
how much you truelly ment
and now
now it's too late.
I should have told you
but i couldn't
everytime i saw
another momen
when your strength
gave out
i knew
i needed to tell you
but... i couldn't
because if i did
it would make it real
it would mean that everything
was truelly happening
that this goodbye
was final
and that i was alone
that i lost my best friend
my sister
the one person
who truelly understood me
and knew me
better than i knew myself
now i regret
never telling you
just how important
you were to me
and now you're gone
but i won't forget you
no matter how much
pain it causes me
i can't forget
because if i tried
it would mean
forgetting everything
that you have made me be.......
as you read this over my shoulder
as i know you are were ever you may be
don't you worry
i'll be alright
i'll take care of mom and the girls
because you've fought
and taken care of them
long enough
and you've already been thorugh
so much
so you rest
and be happy
and know that you
won't be forgotten
missed you will be
and remember that you were loved....
too late but here it is....
goodbye kenzi.....
thank you for everything........
