Losing Him

by Tasha   Aug 29, 2006


Today, I lost my very best friend.
He said he'd never leave, but I guess things have changed.
How will I go on without him?
Will I ever be the same?

Although he said he never would,
He took his own life today.
It's funny how looking back reminds you
Of things you forgot to say.

I'll never know his reasons,
And he can't tell me why.
Things weren't really that hard, were they?
All he needed to do was try.

So now, when I try to move on,
I'll remember the gift we once had.
I'll look at his picture with tears in my eyes
And remember the man I called "Dad".

    So Touching. You always hope things like this arent true, and you wonder. But things like this happen, and you feel for everyone that suffers, even if you dont know them. Great Job. Take care

    You wouldn't believe it, but I have tears in my eyes. That's a truely inspirational poem. I can relate to it, which makes it all the sadder. When I was 9, my friend commited suicide, and I just didn't understand it. I spent many sleepless nights crying into my pillow, and none of my other friends new what it felt like. I dunno exactly how to explain it... Basically, a chunk was torn from my heart.

    Keep up the great work!

    PS I'll miss you forever, buddy, even though we were growinig apart! :'(
