Second poem in the series about Matthew's death

"Why Did You Have To Go?"

by Amber Moonstone 11/09/06

You are gone,
We are here,
You are forever in our souls,
Why did you have to go?

Why can't you come back
Why do we feel so sad
and then so angry?
Why did you have to go?

Losing you was such a blow,
It just isn't fair to lose you this way,
You were doing so much for everyone,
Why did you have to go?

It wasn't time yet, so much to share
now you are gone and to our despair
We have to go on without you.
Why did you have to go?

There is a bigger power that is to be,
one day soon we will all see
and at that moment we will know....
Why You had to Go.....



Author's Notes: It is true , there is a higher power, and our purpose will be evident at the right and most opportune moment. We must trust in the universe, and not interfere with what is to be.....

Peace, love, and light,
