Cousin



                                I love you,
                                 I miss you,
                    I wish you were still here.
              To laugh with me, joke around.
             I don’t know what was going on,
                         What went wrong.
                          All I know is now,
                      Your gone, I’m still here.
                       Can’t see your face or,
                    Feel your warm embrace,
                           Until our next lives.
                    Gone, but not ever forgotten
                     Our spirits forever kindred.
