LakotaLakota's Bleeding Hearts

The morning since you passed awayThe night before that broke my heartThe Bleeding Heart bloomed full todayA birth from death we're all a partYou bare escaped death oft beforeSo many prayers were said for youYour birth was from death even moreThan most of your kind ever knewYou never knew your mother's kissNor could you know I wasn't sheAnd never did you challenge thisAs being what your life should beThough you were sick and oft in painYou met each day with strength anewAnd never did you once complainOf all your illness put you throughYou gave me hope, when every mornI'd come to see, with bated breathFor fear this was the day I'd mournTo see if you had escaped deathFor years now you had grown so strongThat each day I felt more assuredThat we had overcome the wrongThrough love and faith we had enduredI called to you, but no reply...And knew my heart was soon to breakOnly death could part you and IAnd this was more than I can take.Carole Stairs Lewis 6/12/98
