This past week has been the hardest of my life
Pain and confusion I had never experienced
The tears, the frowns, the silence
Unfortunately, you weren't here when it all happened
You were away and had no idea
But that is a good thing to me in one way
It made me figure out that no matter how much I can't stand you at times, there is double the love
Your love is amazing
I thank you for being there in my past weak moments
I wish you could of been here
I can't wait to see your smile again
I need to see you, know you are okay
Because I can't imagine my life without you

I wrote this a couple days ago after someone I knew comitted suicde. It's been a really hard year, more than one person I know has died and I'm really sad.

I am so sorry, Rebecca. Perhaps remembering the things you loved about the person will help carry you through the sad times. Hearthugs to you, and welcome to your new extended family.

Wow! Thanks for responding. I am so glad you like it! This is a big acomplishment for me because I am only 12. And I am moving on, slowing, but steadily.

WELCOME TO PASSIONS REBECCA!!
For being only twelve you have shown
much wisdom in your first post.
I know this must be a difficult time for you..
but coming here to Passions you will be able to let those sad feelings go
through your writing..
and hopefully see happier times
and meet some new friends here along the way.
Keep up the good work!
~Smiles & Hugs, Nancy~
