• I never knew about you
    I never had a clue
    I finally met you a year ago
    And I guess that goes to show

    You had two beautiful daughters
    You were a lovely mother
    You were always happy and full of joy
    You had more joy than a 3-year-old with a toy

    I loved you oh so dearly
    You knew very me clearly
    You made me smile
    As we sat on tile

    You reminded others not to give me wool
    You always saved me a stool
    Your laugh was as gentle as a lullaby
    You never showed any sadness in your eye

    I wanted to go visit you
    I was sure that's what I'd do
    Even though I just met you
    I still loved you

    Then my mom told me
    A fatal story
    Of that you died
    All that day I cried

    You died on Christmas Eve
    Why did you have to leave
    When you got stuck on your car door
    And it dragged you on the floor

    My brother told me you got hit by a car
    I knew he was off by far
    He had a certain tone in his voice
    He lied, and that was his choice

    I never said goodbye last time
    I don't care if this will rhyme
    I'm not ready to loose you
    I'm not ready to say goodbye too

    I really want you here with me
    Your smile is something I want to see
    I want to hear your wonder laugh
    I want you here, I want you back

    I miss you Aunt Lida
    I love you Aunt Lida
    I want your warm hugs right now
    I want you to wipe away my tears right now

    I'm not ready to say goodbye
    I wasn't ready for you to die
    I miss you so much
    I miss you a bunch

    Please come back so I can hear your voice
    I want you to make that choice
    You understood me
    You saw the real me

    You built my dreams
    No one was ready for you to go it seems
    I just got you
    Now I just lost you

    I wish I was there so I could save you
    So that I knew what to do
    You saw the real me
    The person I want to be

    When I find your grave
    For this I saved
    I will cry and say through my tears
    I will accept your death one of my fears

    I will say goodbye
    I never wanted you to die
    But your time has come
    And wrong it has done

    Goodbye Aunt Lida goodbye forever
    I shall hear your voice never
    I don't want to let you go
    If I was asked I would say no

    I'm not ready to say goodbye.

    Lida 1972-2008 December 24
    A loving woman
    A beautiful dream
    A lost chain
    The missing piece

    Please don't say "suck it up" because this woman saw the real me, she was important to me, and her daughters are now with a new family, and if you say any insults about Aunt Lida save it, it took me a long time to accept she is dead.
