Siblings gone too soon



The loss of a sibling is like no other
First a brother then a sister
My heart was ripped in two
I hold onto the promise of God
To see them again in eternity
Call them often, hug them tight
You never know when thier time is up
Life is short death comes to all
Love your sibling, forgive always
Do not let anger go one more night
Love your family to the end
