Hello and Goodbye

In memory of Aubrina Fussell with love.

Gone too soon
And soon seems like too late,
And too late is too late,
Even when I didn't say goodbye to you
Or whisper,"I love you" in your ear
In order you may hear me.
Born too late?
Or gone too soon I ask
But I wonder too
Why taken now but I wonder.
Your baby barely knows you
And your family is left behind.

I said, hello to you
Wondering if you were fine.
Just a friendly jester with a smile
As I see your happy face glow from your dark skin shines.

Hello to you was the beginning of a conversation
And later before just that to both of us.
After all of that,
You turned and went away---forever!
Lost, gone from me
Like a flower plucked
Soon gone away
And that's when I say
Good-bye this time around to you
A hard and harsh word
Especially when you've gone too soon.

Gone too soon,
And soon seems like too late,
And too late is too late,
And goodbyes aren't enough time
And time seems so short,And gone are those days and summers you've lived,
And gone are the times of your very lives shown,
And gone is gone with not turning back,
Mind, body and soul,
But spirit lives on somewhere out here
But I can say anymore?
Gone too soon
And soon seems like too late
Especially when you're young and gone too soon....
