The day is ending,
The sun is descending;
The ocean is still and black with despair

Through clouds like ashes
The red sun flashes
On village windows
That glimmer red.

The buried fences
Mark no longer
The road o'er the plain;

While through the meadows,
Like fearful shadows,
Slowly passes
A funeral train.

My sister, my friend, my playmate
rides to her final resting place.

What i have left is only a few items of hers
and memories.

As I stand in the bright sun of Hawaii
I begin to think about all of the good times we had.

I begin to think of the last thing that i said to her before I left for
college.

" A hui hou kakou kaikuahine"

And now I stand here in the sun watching her body be put to rest.

Tears of sadness and anger poor from my eyes as i see her for one last time.


In my mind i beg for her to awaken so we can be together one last time.

So i can see her smile and hear her laugh, so i can say goodbye.

Oh Tori you were so young and had a long life ahead of you.

And now i am left with this burden of life without you.

Without seeing you graduate high school, college, or seeing you get
married.

So many things that we have been through are only memories that i have to
remember you.

So many things that i should have done but didn't now haunt me to this
day.

I didn't get a chance to say goodbye
To her, to tell her that I loved her, to say
What now must be one long, unbroken cry
Of pain, now that at last she gone away.

Why wasn't it me to die that day instead of her?

So many questions fill my head as i stand with her one last time

One last time together before she is pt to rest

One last time that i fall to my knees and ask her to wake

My little sister is now a person of the wind,
Free to be the memory
Of all that might have been because of the crash.

Your legacy must be both love and fear.
I know that when you died, you feared for me.

My tears go to the sun and to our land where we will both be together in
someday
