This poem is dedicated to my friend Amanda Nowlin who died in a car crash this morning on the way to school. She was a Junior in my highschool, Southern Boone County Highschool, and she was a friend of mine as well.....
This morning i heard the news
I heard a girl had died
Can this be true
All the school hears
A wind of sorrow blows through
Tears fall and hearts break
Not again, not again we say
One by one we fall
To your sorrow
We cry your name
And lift you up
In heaven now
you cant be hurt
God holds your hand
To guide you home
We'll say a prayer
To let you know
We care for you
And hope your there
At heavens gates
An angel now
We seek you out
In prayer and love
Giving you our faith
Farewell, farewell
We bid
Take care and know your loved
No one can hurt you now
On Earth we gather
One group together
Hand in hand and heart to heart
Singing your name
Be safe, be safe
Oh heaven bound angel
Your friends will miss you
But now you must go
Away, away... peace to you,
Sweet heaven bound angel.
