i just had her memory


I just had her memory
Of my sister gone for decades
A young girl of 2 years old
She left the family quickly

She was sick
My mother had no money to pay
Life was hard back in the old days
She was gone I cried in my sleep

There was a small going ceremony
The praying and the final resting place
By now I can't find her spot
It should be covered by grass or mud

My mother used to say
Your sister came back to the house
She had grown and she was happy
In the other side of the world”

Now she has company
Our parents, my brother, uncles and aunties
Our grandparents, relatives and friends
The other side of the world we don't see
