It has now been 3 years and 43 days, we still don't know the answers. This was written by Jasmine's sister Nicole. Jasmine went missing June 17 th 2007, from Cole Co. Mo.

September 10, 2007 Monday
Day 85

All I know is that
It's become a way of life really.
Our lives revolve around this
Around (finding) her.

We were there searching for her again.
Her words came out of my mother's mouth
"Red looks good on you."
Thats what m;y sister always told me.

They told us that it's hard to say
If she is in the river
If we would ever find her.
Last time they told us it's hard to say
With the current this way.

Everyday we are searching for her.
Hoping and praying for her kids
That we find her.
All that we have to say to them is
That she loves you.

Two days ago we were in a field
Then they told us it's hard to say
If she is here how long it could take.
We will come back again someday
Then maybe we'll find her.

Tonight it all comes rushing in
Memories and emotions
The good and the bad.
All I have to say to her is that
No matter what I loved her.

I just want to add my poem was written to all the missing whose families believe their loved ones life was violently taken like my son was.
There are many missing who will return and to those families NEVER loose hope that one day they will walk through the door and you will be able to hug again. Faith~Hope & perserverance <3

ECHOES OF SILENCE

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

IF YOUR LIFE WAS SUDDENLY SHATTERED
WHEN YOUR CHILD WAS TORN AWAY
NO TIME TO SAY GOOD-BYE
THERE WON'T BE ANOTHER DAY
A CONSTANT HEARTACHE,
WHAT HAPPENED?
DID YOU SUFFER?
YOUR LIFE THEY DID TAKE

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

TIME TO MOVE ON THEY SAY
GET OVER IT
HOW LONG WILL THIS LAST
IT GOES ON STILL ANOTHER DAY
THEY SAY YOU'VE CHANGED
UNDERSTAND THEY DO NOT
YOU CAN'T TURN YOUR BACK
MANY THINK IT'S STRANGE

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

PEOPLE HAVE VANISHED
VIOLENTLY TORN AWAY
THEIR BODIES ARE HIDDEN
O LORD, FIND THEM TODAY
MY CHILD ONE OF THEM
NO MATTER THE AGE
LOVE, LIFE'S FORCE
CORNERED IN A CAGE

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

HOURS TURN INTO DAYS
MONTHS BECOME YEARS
CHALLENGES ARE MANY
SILENCE THEY SAY
BLESSINGS DO COME
HUMAN ANGELS APPEAR
TAKE MY HAND
I'LL GUIDE YOU THERE

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

WE WILL MAKE IT THROUGH
GOD WILL LEAD THE WAY
LIKE A FLASHLIGHT DOWN A DARK PATH
WE TRUST IN YOU
SO PLEASE WE MIGHT ASK
CHALLENGES ARE MANY
DON'T TURN YOUR BACK
HELP US WITH THIS TASK

WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

From the heart, to all who have a missing loved one
Sometimes pushed aside we are not contagious just need answers and heartbroken

I"m glad to be apart of this. I don't write poems to well, but I will do my best.

Your face appeared on a missing poster one day
So I thought it would be best to figure out your case
I talked, wrote letters, even when to the police
But no one could tell me where you went

I went to your last job the Broadway Parking Lot
I meet with one of your friends who you knew a lot
I sat and tried to figure out what happened

Then a White Dove flew over my head
I realized that maybe that's a sign from you
A sign of love, honor and hope
A sign of peace for your soul

I will never give up Cindy Lee Mellin
I only know you by what your friends have told me
Kind, caring, full of life, a true friend
So as I write your name once again
I wonder where your soul is tonight?
I pray someday we will find the answers
Of who took you that cold, dark lonely night.

(I love you peace)

Jesse, Jesse Where are you?

Jesse Jesse where you gone?
The morning bird’s lost it’s song
The morning sky’s no longer blue
Jesse, Jesse where are you?

Chicago ain’t my kind of town
‘til they say that you been found.
I want to know this very day,
Who it is took you away.

Where you gone, to outer space?
Or off to war to be an ace?
Jesse come on home to us,
Or give a call and we’ll grab a bus.

Life’s not the same, it isn’t whole.
There’s such a pain within our soul.
So find your way, come back again.
Come back to us, and heal our pain.

Jesse, Jesse where you gone?
The morning bird’s lost it’s song.
The morning sky’s no longer blue,
Jesse, Jesse where are you?
