A MERE WHISPER IN A DREAM
by Tracy Gross

She slipped away in the night,
like a shadow crossing over the moon.
She made not a sound,
she spoke not a word.
She never said good-bye.
but a mere whisper in a dream.
So many things left unsaid,
so many dreams unfullfilled.
So many days left without her,
so may things I wish I had said.
Too many missed opportunities,
to tell her "I love her".
How I wish - I could have known,
how I would have changed things.
How many things I miss about her,
how much she'll always mean to me.
How much I would give to get her back,
how I would even take her place.
BUT ONLY A MERE WHISPER IN A DREAM
WE ALWAYS FEEL YOU NEAR
by Tracy Gross

Staring at pictures of days gone by
I remember my little sister
and her beautiful smile.
We always SEE you near.
In a large crowd I turn at the sound of your laughter.
I search the faces in the crowd,
but you're nowhere to be found.
We always HEAR you near.
The soft smell of Vanilla Candles,
still lingers in your room.
But, if you try to blow out the candles,
you will see there is no flame.
We always SMELL you near.
When I wear your clothing,
I feel like I am getting a giant hug from you.
But, the only arms I see are my own.
We always FEEL you near.
You are at rest now Becky,
But you live on forever in our hearts,
and we will
always FEEL YOU NEAR.
Tracy & Becky
NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN
by Tracy Gross

Never to be forgotten is.....
My other half, my twin, my sister
One mind, two bodies, one heart, two souls

Never to be forgotten....
The many times we shared
The many dreams we told

Never to be forgotten....
Her everlasting smile,
and all the goofy things she did

Never to be forgotten...
The dream I had that night
and the nightmare I had when I awoke
to find it had all come true

Never to be forgotten...
The way I found her there
Peacefully sleeping a night without harm

Never to be forgotten....
Our last walk  to the Eagles Nest,
Our last goodbye that night,
Our last laugh, Our last cry,
Our last great big fight

Never to be forgotten...
All the love and the memories
That I will always carry of her

And all of these are truely....
Never, Ever To Be Forgotten.

Love Always, Your Big Sis, Tracy
