Analysis of Another birthday without you



Tday is the day you were born to this earth
Life’s struggles and memories and all of the hurt
Are all i have left because you are now gone
Watching us safely and away from all harm
With subtle reminders that you are still near
Then the harsh grim reminder its yet a new year
So as it passes again so sad and true
I hope heaven gets this message for you
The message i leave for you every year
Happy birthday sissy i wish you were here.
