GIA

This is a poem to my beautiful GIA

Whose long loving arms I run to in the midst of pain

Whose calloused cold fingers comfort my tear-stricken face

She is the beauty I will never forget

An inspiration who touched my life

But left me with one regret

So young, so fast, too late

She left us to suffer

To live a life without her

When I’m curled like a fetus distraught and panicked

Who will gently cradle me and whisper tenderly

I forever thought you would be here till I die

I forever thought you would love till the end

My one regret is never saying goodbye

I never thought that I would lose you this soon

All I can do now is cry

Now I see the truth behind taking life for granted

And the people who live in it

So I write this for losing, living and loving

To my dearly departed beautiful GIA

Born to rule the world

Died at 30

I wrote this 3 years ago, months after my cousin Gia passed away. This sunday 9-11 is her Death Anniversary. We miss her so much.
