For Emmy

My sister, Emilee, lost a close friend this last week, in a jet-ski accident. The news hit her hard, and my heart broke for her and her friends family. . .after i heard the news, I couldn't stop praying, and I don't really know why but I felt like writing something for em. . .

The rhythm stops pounding in my chest,
A sliver of my heart just said its last goodbye.
Called away to sleep.
But in the end, sleep is not eternal,
Life still dwells in the mist.
A faint light still flickers in the dark,
For that goodbye is not forever,
Reunion will come soon.
So that flicker will not dim,
But burst out into the darkest night.
