I remember exactly what you said
Your words play back inside my head
Said you loved me, I was a great friend
I never knew you life would tragically end
I didn't tell you what you meant to me
Who would have thought you'd lose your life unexpectedly
So now I'm left with words to say
I hope you will hear them some how, some way
I really miss you, the pain is strong
If I ever offened you, just know that I was wrong
Your friendship meant a great deal to me
I only hope some how you can see
So you know I wont forget
And to move on? I'm not strong enough yet
I can't stop the tears I cry
A constant question, just wondering "Why?"
You were a friend that I could confide
From your tender word my tears some how dried
Helped me out when times were bad
Calmed me down when I was mad
Something that struck me about you, my friend
I didn't know how much you meant to me until the very end
Words that I heard, words that I dread
Words I wont say, admitting that you are dead
In the city of angels, or somewhere near by
I wont let go, wont say goodbye.
This poem really hit home for me...I lost two of my friends in a car accident Dec. 15, 2001, and I still have not found the strength to take their numbers off my cell phone, or their s/n off my buddy list on AOL. It's been almost two years, and the pain is still fresh in my mind...it is difficult, but you have really found an amazing way of putting your pain into words only a true poet could write down. I really love this one...Keep writing...

This is a lovely poem. I'm so sorry about your great loss.
If it helps to heal, carry on writing poetry. I know it'll never bring your friend back, but remember that he is still watching you.
You're a great poet, never give it up.
Robin,
I definately know exactly how you feel. My friend's name is still on my
Yahoo list and AIM, still in my address book. It's like if you delete it, it's so
final. Just can't do that yet...maybe never. I have a folder just for my friend,
check it out sometime: LeVane

Awww!I really love this poem because it's sooooo very true! I'm still in denial, but I'm learning to accept it that some friends have passed on. I hate saying it but It's true. Thanks for sharing this poem though. I think it helped me out a lot!
oh schmidty, i know its awful, i miss them too
and i feel like such an ass....i was in a bad mood before it happened, and he msged me, wanted to talk...I blew him off, never knowing that it was my last time Id ever talk to him....but we cant help whats been done, that force is out of our handes and I knnow it still hurts, butt he pain goes away and you come to realize that theyre still with us, still talking, still listening, still laughing. Just because we cannot see them does not mean they ever left
peace, a friend if you need,
