“She died over 10 years ago but came to me in my dream early this morning…I know you would get it”

I had a cousin once

She was like a sister

Whatever I did

She did

Wherever I went

She went

Except for one thing

And no matter how hard I tried

I couldn’t get her to stop

Now she’s gone

She died alone

And I was so angry

And then I was so sad

I miss her very much

I still cry sometimes

She is in a better place

She must be

That’s how I go on

Without her
