Diera Stokes

September 21, 2012

A thousand times we needed you
A thousand times we cried
If love alone could have saved you
you never would have died
A heart of gold stopped beating
two twinkling eyes closed to rest
God broke our hearts to prove he only took the best
never a day goes by that you're not in my heart and my soul

Diera Stokes

September 10, 2012

I still talk to you ...
I know you can hear me…
Today I spoke of you and before I finished my sentence….
I could feel your presence...
Then .. a coincidence, or was it a sign?
The song that reminds me of you began to play…
As If you knew I was thinking of you this day...
I smiled.. feeling you were there with me …
Again... I sat remembering…
Tears filled my eyes as I listened to the song.
But this time I accepted that you are gone.


Will truly be missed but not forgotten.
