Dear Friend, R.I.P.

rest in peace dear friend

it's all left to memories now

i know you'd remember if i left

and it makes me feel so horrible

just knowing you might fade

knowing that maybe someday

i might not remember everything

you know everything we ever did

every mistake we ever made

every chance we ever took

but i guess just the memory of you

the way you were always my best friend

and always there for me

that might be good enough

i dont know

i'm so confused

i've never lost someone like this

i never thought you'd actually leave

you always told me

that maybe someday you might be gone

and what would i do then

i always said that'd never happen

that we'd be together til the end

it seems like everywhere i look

changes are taking place

everything i ever knew

is no longer the same

it's just so strange

not having you here to listen as i complain

you were always good at that

it didn't seem like you could get sick of me

but maybe you did

maybe it was all my fault

maybe i drove you to it

i dont know it's just...

god i dont know what to say




Author's Notes/Comments: 

why do people do bad things to themselves that hurt other people? sometimes life just doesn't seem fair to anybody... especially not the people who are left behind by disasters that maybe nobody could control.

I'm sorry for your loss. It explains your depressing poetry though. Good luck.

Sometimes something hits us so hard, that we don't know what to say. We are choked by so many emotions that seem to surface all at once. And it hurts so much, but with time things heal, as I have had the horrible honor to find out. My best friend was killed in a car accident. I know the pain. Good job, peace and love.
