The World isn’t the Same
By: Christine Miskonoodinkwe Smith
The world isn’t the same
Without you here
I miss you more than
The day you left this world behind
Your smile
Your laughter
And telling of stories
The world isn’t the same
Without you here
I miss you more than
The day you left this world behind.
Oh what I’d give
To hear your voice
One more time
To have my phone ring
And hear you say
How are you?
Or hear your laugh
As you tell me one more time
How people couldn’t believe
That my sister and I were born
So close together
Within ten months to be exact
The world isn’t the same
Without you here
I miss you more than
The day you left this world behind
I love you mommy
I can only hope that now
You are at peace
And pain free
No longer hurting
From society’s ills
And that you are
Free
