I never saw your smiling face.
The doctor said it was an unusual case.
A tiny hole in an enlarged heart,
it stopped that morning and wouldn't start.

My parent's worst nightmare,
pain too great to bare.
Up to Heaven, God took your soul,
all because of that tiny hole.

I was young and I really missed her.
For many years she was my unseen sister.
Now that I see that death is near,
I have no regrets and I do not fear.

I can't wait to finally meet you,
my baby sister, Brenda Sue.
