Sister

I can't believe you're gone
My sweet little sister
With your corn silk hair
As beautiful as spun gold
And your sweet dimples

I miss your laugh already
It was music to my ears
And the way you speak
With only the slightest hint of an accent
Beautiful

I miss lying in the dark of night talking
And days spent lounging in the hot sun
And diving into pools of sweet, cool water

Why does everyone I love always leave me?
