A sister gone.

my sister has been gone for twenty two plus year's, 

The memories I have are surrounded by broken tears, 

I remember the day God took you it was the worst day of my life, 

I tried to find a logic but such thing was not so right,

I can see only through pictures because don't see you,

I feel as if i failed  because we are left without a thought,

For the evil that lurks  the  street's  a rapist  who has not been caught, 

I have never been able to write this my eye's are with heavy rain,

I look at my sweet daughter and feel sadness from uncertain pain,

I wish I could remember the day's we had we laughed, 

But now your just a memory faded from my horrid past,

I want to tell you sorry ,I'm sorry i wasnt  there ,

To protect my older sister the only one who really cared,

But now I write this poem because my eye's are filled with tears, 

I gave my daughter life ,she reminds me of how you were, 

So kind but beautiful a angel of something pure,

So know that I do love that will never go away,forever my big sister you flying far as we all do pray.

It's good to write such powerful feelings on, I think it's often cathartic and allows others to reflect on their own devastating experiences. A brave poem and benefits from the new life you have generated , continuing with hope despite the sad memory.
