And when your golden curls have turned to red,
when your eyes have lost all their light find strength in my life.
Enough white to kindle a massacre of poems.
At least tremble enough that I may flame in your green array,
all these years, the battle of each grievous day.
Perhaps then those beautiful tears will overcome...
I almost wrecked this morning in about the same place
my mother called me the day she found out,
I hydroplaned going about 42 miles per hour.
I wasn't scared or anything it was very strange.
I had a moment in time and space,
all to myself to think.
To die then would mean to be with my sister,
but if I had then I would have missed out on this dream I've had for so long.
It just goes to show what a girl like Erin with an enormous heart
and a talent to make the world smile could have done if she was still alive.
It sounds strange, but Erin couldn't have lived out her dreams on Earth,
so now I must make it a point,
so now it's my job to live them out for her
and let the world know what a wonderful person it will never get to meet.
