Well this is for a friend who recently died (tuesday)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I was there when you needed to talk,
You were there when I wanted to walk,
And now I cant see you ever again.
Why cant I understand this?
You were my best friend of almost 4 years and ex of 2.
I cant help crying eveynight since I heard,
It all just seems so obsurd.
Maybe its because I cant go and say goodbye.
Maybe its because You're now the one who made me cry. I miss you so much and now I cant tell you what you mean to me.
Why didnt I see?
I thought it would all be ok Monday,
and now look. I have so much depression, mom thinks Im going insane.
Can this really be true? That I have lost you? That I'll never see you again?
I dont want to believe it...but my heart tells me differently.
As I lay there trying to sleep I drift off and wake up half an hour later with my pillow wet. Knowing that I have been crying and have woken myself up.
I dont deal well with pain, so why do I hafta go thru this again? Weren't two deaths enough?
I never did get to say good-bye to the first two and now Im being told I cant say good-bye to you.
Mom says it'll be even harder to look at you like that, but I believe it will give my heart rest to say good-bye.
Wont someone tell me why you had to die?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Im not good at dealing with pain so I write...Im not that good at it yet...but some of my poems have gotten me in trouble at school. They thought something was wrong at home. Ill hafta post them later.

Wow...What an awsome first post and it was a very touching tribute to your friend.It's hard losing someone so close to you and I've been through it so I know.I hope in time the pain heals but i'm not going to lie it will take awhile and if you ever need to talk you can always e-mail me.

Death just invokes some of the most complex, sad, and utterly confusing emotions. I'm very sorry that you had to go through something like this. It's good though that you are writing to help you deal with the pain. Keep writing. It'll really help you grow. As for the poem, I liked it. You spoke very honestly and clearly about your thoughts and emotions. Thanks for sharing.

You know its been a good day when you come home, realize you forgot your key again, and decide to climb through the doggie door instead of complaining

Boo,

Please accept my deepest apologies on the loss of your friend. I know that doesn't begin to help, but one thing that I hope will help is your posting this poem here and finding so many wonderful and nice people to become friends with. Many of us whom may know what you are going through.  I hope you do enjoy your stay here.

losing people close to you is the worst feeling in the world.  writing helps and people help when you can talk about it.  you did a good job expressing yourself in this piece.  welcome to passions.

Sometimes, the things that go unsaid are the only things worth hearing.

I'd like to say that your poem here was full of emotion and power. I think you wrote this finely. My condolences about your friend, many of us have gone through the same. I know I have 3 times over.
A little tip before posting your other poetry that had problems in school: Before posting if you haven't read the Passions Guidelines I suggest you do so   It would improve your stay here immensely.
I hope to see you post more in the future. I enjoyed this poem and good luck.  

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

Writing can be a very good outlet for dealing with pain, as it seems you've found out.  It seems like you've been dealing with more than one person should have 2 handle.  I'm so sorry for the loved ones that you have lost, and this much be such a difficult time for you.  I sincerely hope that things improve, and just remember that they live on inside of you.
