My daughters Jewel and Milla, born two days apart in Liverpool
Died 10 years apart and buried 7,500 miles apart. Jewel in Liverpool and Milla in Central Java, Indonesia...losing both my daughters is devastating and overwhelming. Not being able to visit both regularly is very hard to take.
Miles apart
How can you start
To even contemplate
How cruel fate
Revealed its hand
Lay you to rest in distant lands
Separated by years
Unified with tears
Separated by miles, land and sea
Lives born, lived then ceased to be
Torn between west and east
We cry tears that will not cease
Yet despite continental divide
On opposite sides of this earth you lie
Your soul and spirit play
Once more together again to stay
Sisters again united as one
This earth holds that which has gone
But we know not how or when
Together we all will be, together again
