A few months after Katie’s homegoing:
Now it’s the aftermath
Of a time well spent
Grieving and weeping
Sadness and laughter
Of course you’re in our hearts
As you’ll always be
But it seems like I’m forced to move on
To the world I’ve always known
Just looking where you lay
Never thought I’d see that way
Yours, my sister’s name,
Engraved in stone
Before my very eyes
A teardrop falls
Remembering the life that was before me
And the life that is not visible to me now
Oh God, please help me to face the facts
Oh, I wish I would’ve known
I just feel so alone
As a few months have gone by

It is amazing to see what God has done in my life since I wrote this poem. He has truly been such a comfort.
