If our tears could build a stairway,
Together they would reach the sky.
We would walk every step of the way,
If we could see you just one more day.
Cause we didn't get to see you,
Nor was able to say goodbye
Before god decided to take you away.
You left us so sudden
And we can't help but wonder why?
So much we still need you,
So much we have cried,
So many tears,
They could reach the sky.
The news we had been told
Was so hard to believe.
You had really died and gone away,
And it wasn't just a dream.
We fell to our knees,
Hands raised to the heaven above.
Tears ran down our cheeks,
So many they could reach the sky.
If our tears could build a stairway,
To the sky they'd definitely reach.
We would tell you how much we loved you
And all we had to say
before that day you went away.
We would talk about the things
That we had put on hold till another day
We thought we had more time
We never thought you'd leave us behind.
Not knowing that tomorrow
Our whole life would be changed.
Cause come the next day, it would be to late,
You'd already be gone.
If tears could build a stairway,
To the sky they would reach.
We would come and visit often
And go to heavens Beach.
We would tell you how life is different
With out you here in it.
And you'd tell us what it's like there
Is it true what they say?
But sadly tears can't build a stairway,
So all of this will have to wait.
Until God calls us all home
And we meet at heavens pearly gate.
Don't wait around on me,
Cause I don't know how long I'll be.
But I promise I'll make it there one day
And we will be together, once again
Just like we use to be.
We will be together for eternity.

- Comment from author about the poem: This was wrote my cousin's Fiance whom we just recently lost about a month and a half ago. Losing the ones you love brings on so much pain. To me writing about it like this here, helps me deal with the loss and the pain an helps put how I'm feeling into words. Plus I love to share my writings with my fellow writers or people who has lost a loved one and looking for poems that describes how they feel or that may be going through other similar situations that i am that i write about or just people who have a love for poems and just like to read them. Whatever may be their reason for reading my poems, that's why I share them and hope and pray everyone likes them and they may help some of you out there in some way or another. Hope y'all like this one. Leave your comment below of how you honestly truly think about this. Thank you, God bless you and have a great day/night.

Amazing! You speak only the truth.
You express in a beautiful way what most people who have to go through such an experience only feel inside.
Amazing tribute to them both
A very beautiful tribute KRYSTAL to those who have been called home prematurely the tragedy is (in my experience too ~I'm 33) we don't always get a warning ~ ONE day here ~ NEXT day gone tragic. In these circumstances I find my Christian Faith is a great comfort ~ and the assurance that we WILL all be reunited in GLORY ~ AMEN Yours BRIAN (UK) Please check my poems ~ Thanks BRIAN
