Sitting here alone...
Reliving the memories...
Looking back and crying...
Why did you have to go?
The life you lived was cut short...
There was no need...
They all say it was a waste...
Why did you leave me here?
Seeing you lying there...
Motionless...
The tears started flowing, with no end in sight...
Why?
Your kindness...
Your love for children...
Can be matched by no one...
Why did you have to leave?
The people you left behind...
Your friends...
Your family...
We find ourselves asking why...
You were a life so well known...
The pain this created...
Will never be forgotten...
Why did this happen to you?
You were a caring person...
So happy and full of life...
That night seemed to drag on and on...
Seeing people so happy...
Not being able to fake it...
So many people...
Who didn't know you...
Why?
Your life was used against me...
My parents made you a lesson...
One that I shouldn't follow...
You were my friend...
Buy they don't care...
They don't realize...
What our friendship meant to me...
Now you're gone...
Never again...
Will I be consoled by you...
Will I be the target of your smile...
Will I receive a big warm hug...
Everything now seems...
So cold and lifeless...
A big empty world...
With you not in it...
Thoughts of you...
Buzz through my mind...
So young...
So much life ahead of you...
To be cut short...
By one stupid choice...

Very sad. Articulated well, I identify with it strongly...although I picture it being about Kurt Cobain...I'm probably way off base with that one, but either way- bravo.

I'm sorry, that does not help. But the poems you write about are true within yourself.

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
