I Am Sari
My heart is torn
Left to bleed
Mourning for lost loves
A seeping wound
That may never heal
Yet I carry on
For those I still have
I live for love and joy
That will be my path
Harbinger of happiness
And bringer of smiles
A title worn proudly
In memory of my family
And in defiance of my foes
Born to Live
Hair the family blue
From her day of birth
A single cry
That shrank into a smile
Happy to be free
And make some mischief
Always laughing
And smiling for the world
Her spirit bright
Shimmering from her eyes
With mischief on her tongue
A child of joy
Growing up did nothing
To temper her excitement
Loving life and learning
Every trick and skill
Reveling in family
Before it was struck down





Excellent writing my friend, great poems.
