My dearest aunt

Words can not explain the excruciating pain I feel within,
Never did I ever imagine you’d be gone so soon,
Not a day goes by without you coming into mind,
Another like you we shall never find,
A Lot of people say I resemble you,
Maybe a little of you I do,
Your hard work & dedication to succeed has given me the inspiration to always believe,
No matter what came your way,
Whatever time or day,
You stuck it out and paved your own way,
Whenever I feel like life has let me down,
I think of you and how you would stand your ground,
I’m grateful for the time we’ve spent and the lessons you’ve taught me,
Although I was quite young,
From all that I still can remember I hold it close to my heart,
Living without you and your smile and laugh,
Has been a tough road and an endless and painful task,
Nobody else can understand my grief,
For having first lost you and then so many others,
I cannot seem to understand my misfortunes in this life,
I wish you were still here to guide me through,
But I know in spirit it’s all you do,
For until we meet again,
I’ll keep your image, scent, hugs and love alive in my heart,
My dear aunt if there’s one thing for you I can do,
It is to make you proud and happy and never to let you down,
I shall do my best,
You would have expected no less,
I will keep strong and do no wrong,
I promise,
Your memories shall always live on.
