Look back at yesterday
Will it be the same?
Look back at the old thanksgiving
Before Caitlyn died
She was there moving and alive

Everybodys laughter now grows silent
For she is not here
She is living
More alive than ever
Not here

Yesterday effects today
Old Thanksgiving, happy
Todays thanksgiving, grieving
What is there to be thankful for?
Death is only 2 weeks past

Her face luring in our minds
Today was supposed to be a day of thanks
Thanks for family and friends
But today turned out to be a nightmare
One that might not ever end

For she will live deep inside
A place she will hide
In our hearts
Not in her grave
Knowing that her soul was saved

Maybe this Thanksgiving wasn't so bad after all
Through the tears
Breaking of hearts

Family will pull together though this hardship
Tears still coming down our faces
Bonding like never before
Hearts entwined together, helping
Weaving through the past
Stitching to the present


Making one whole product
No holes in between
Stitching up the past
All holes will be patched
A new beginning
Good as new
Moving on through and through
Giving thanks for who we have
Leaving behind the fallen
Never forgetting,Standing strong

Thanksgivings to remember
Thanksgivings to forget

Their all the same
Hearts together as one
Holding hands, saying prayers
For who we have today



*sorry if this was so long, Thanksgiving was hard for my family, Caitlyn my
cousins 2 yr old baby had just died like a month bfore, this poem descibed
how my relatives and family came through with each other, helping out
through everything that happened, it was truly a thanksgiving to remember*
