No One Ever Said

No one ever said
By Veronika Maez

No body ever said that tragedy,
Is sometimes what we need.
To get through the day,
Closer to the ones we need,
The ones we love,
And the only ones who really matter to us .

No body ever said that tragedy,
Can sometimes make a person better,
Or stop family fighting,
Or just make you stop and think,
Think about the ones you still have,
The ones you lost,
And the ones who need you as much as you need them.

No body ever said that happiness,
Might come after you lost the one you loved.
For losing the one you loved may bring you closer to the ones you lost.

My sister wrote this poem shortly after my uncle passed away, and just found it. I think its an amazing poem.
