A Message of Goodbye

Gerard Galvestini on Sep 13, 2011

RIP Tayshana Murphy, a potential star taken away too soon.

A gift of a million prayers

from my weeping heart,

As your soul travels

to the celestial realm,

To be the shining star

as you should have

in this mortal realm,

Why must you be cursed

by being the victim

of someone else’s problem?

No drops of tears I shed

could make up for your absence

for the coming of uncertain times ahead,

With a reluctant goodbye;

may you fly high into the heavens.

Thank you for your comment. But actually, I\’m writing this poem on behalf of the family of the late Tayshana Murphy. You can read about her on the Internet.
