Grief

She was taken too soon

she is greatly missed

she passed on in June


Nylah was my cousin

I never met her

but I heard she shined

bright like the sun


The pain was unbearable

we all felt sorrow

and we all felt terrible


She was gone,

and we couldn't do anything

she filled a space in our hearts

her death changed everything


It was all over the news

and regardless of people's views,

what happened to her was wrong.


To this day,

we are all experiencing grief

some more than others

some still in disbelief

that her life was so brief


We are still angry

that she left the world

the way she did

but more so how


You were meant to do great things

but your life was cut short,

by someone who was supposed to

love and care for you


You are missed Nylah
