This poem I have written is called Home

My child, you're in shock, despair and pain
I'm trying to reach you before you go insane
I see your heartbreak, sadness and tears
You may not believe it but I am right here
Your Heavenly Father is by your side
In my arms, peace and comfort you will find
This unspeakable tragedy you do not understand
You ask me why I allowed this to happen
Why did I not save her, or help her survive
Why is my beloved Aunty not alive?
To see her family and children grow
Why let her loved ones go through all this sorrow
You think I have forsaken you and I let you down
Your faith is troubled; your life is upside down
You can't even breathe your suffocating in pain
Trust in me, I will bring you joy again
My child, I give life and I take it away
This earth is not where my angels stay
I gave her to you all for a short time
I'm sorry I did not give you a sign
That I was ready to take my daughter home
To be with me where she belongs
She is not alone, she is loved and at peace
Her love for you all will never cease
Now you will lay her body to rest
Please remember what my bible says

I will strengthen you all with my righteous hand
Wait on me and stand on my promises
I will bring you all though this sadness
Please celebrate her life with gladness
She isn't dead she is alive with me
She is singing praises with the angels for eternity
I know your pain, I understand your loss
I also saw my Son die on a cross
I can see your grieving, now you're saying goodbye
But she is in heaven right by my side
She will watch over you all until you meet again
Children, family, loved ones and friends
Please understand the devil has not won
Her eternal life has only just begun
So hold on tight to every sweet memory
Understand that her spirit has been set free
Be still and let me heal you through this
I know your Aunty Norma will be dearly missed
And though it hurts in the depth of your soul
My child, do not weep, for she is now safe at home

Rest in Heaven Aunty.

Love from your niece Ebony
