Jamie Lynn Drake 1987-2006

By Soulfire

God came down from heaven today

Saw an Angel and took her away

As our hearts broke and our eyes filled with tears

God said, Listen child and calm your fears.

At the begining of time, I chose a special few

Who would touch the lives of all they knew

I couldn't leave her here too long

because even heaven was saddened with this Angel gone

Please understand it was not a mistake

Heaven needed an Angel like Jamie Lynn Drake

My friend and my sister, I will never forget your beautiful smile.
You will be missed dearly sweet Angel.

    My brother died when he was seventeen... I really understand your tragedy. I'm sorry for your loss- I envy you, for I have not been able to write of his death. I understand it works as a solace. You've encouraged me.

    I'm so sorry for the loss of your brother. Writing about it does help, but only when you are ready to live the loss again. xoxox

    When I touch my temples, I can make a small space between my fingers. That is physical brain mass. I know nothing of God but, I do believe no child is forgotten. This comes from the mind of a drunk and a fool, for what it's worth. Just don't stop believing in something, anything.
