Your Last Words

It is never easy to say Good-Bye. With a heavy heart I think to myself, I’m not ready to say Good-Bye. I still want to call you. I still want to see you. I still want to say “what are you doing”. You have been in my life from the day I was born. And now you are not here. My heart is breaking. I think of the song we liked so much.

“Remember you said you always gonna need me. Remember you said you’d never ever leave me. Remember, remember, I’m asking you, begging you. Stay with me.”

I think of you when you were young. I see your beautiful long brown hair. How full of life and love you were. I have happy memories. I will remember your beautiful face the way you would want me to. Free of pain. Free of suffering. You fought so hard. I know you did not want to go. You made sure your last words to me were “ I Love You”. How lucky am I to know those were the words we said to each other one last time.?

It is always better to say something kind. We never know when we might speak our last words to someone. We have the power with the words we speak to bring great joy. And sadly, to inflict great pain. If what you said to a loved one were your last words to them, how would that make you feel? If we all think twice about that, we might just find ourselves living in a better world. One where kindness prevails and we lift others by the nice things we say.

Your last words…”I Love You”. It’s the only thing right now that is helping ease the pain of losing you.

Your baby sister will love you forever.❤️
