To Lena,
With Love, Raechel Machado


   
It seems like just yesterday, that I saw your smiling face.
I never imagined the next time I saw you,
I would be saying goodbye.
We didn't always get along,
But somewhere through the years,
You became the older sister I didn't know I needed.
You were always there to make me smile,
To make me laugh and cry,
Now you're gone and I don't know what to do.
So I sit and wonder why.
Why did you leave me,
I feel so alone,
Like a part of me is missing,
The scary thing is I know that the hole will never be filled.
My only hope now is that you are watching over me,
And I will keep waiting for the day,
When we are together again.
My Girl Lena
By Courtney

Lena was my best friend
We were to take care of eachother til' the end
She always wore a smile
Although life had put her through many trials
Her eyes were blue-green
The most beautiful eyes anyone had ever seen
We were always together
Of course friends forever
Either cruisin in my Volvo, or in her Honda
Made the memories so much more fonder
She was on her way home in a car full of not so close friends
When her life turned a new page
And the ride suddenly turned into Road Rage
Just one snap of her spinal cord
The extra weight of a baby
And the collision with his Ford
And her future became very shady
Lena's life came to an end
And I was left behind again
I miss her so bad
Although I should be glad
That when the car hit the tree
God quickly set her sole free
But, left me very sad
I feel sometimes like I want to die
Why did she have to leave?
Why did she have to say goodbye?
It really doesn't matter cause sometimes I think I hate her
Like when she picks at my brain
And brings back all that pain
It just about makes me want to go insane
I love her so much
I miss her so much
A million words to help me through couldn't be enough
Our memories may be in the past
But in my heart is where they will forever last
You will always be my girl
And I will always be your woman
I can't wait to see you again
You will always be my forever friend
Lena will swim with the dolphins
When her mom can let go of her ashes
In the ocean they will forever flow
So drive Mock "10"
Until I see you again
The End
