In an upside-down garden

Sometimes I feel I'm the only one,
who still talks to you out loud,
as if you're actually here.

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one,
who still writes you letters,
because I don't want to let go.

Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one,
who cries themself to sleep,
sometimes at night.

Sometimes I feel like I'll be the only one,
putting flowers on your grave,
for years to come.

But Teresa still talks to you out loud,
Melissa still writes you letters,
Jena still cries herself to sleep,
and Alex will put flowers on your grave.

Sometimes I feel that this happened,
because it was all my fault,
all out fault.

Sometimes I think this happened,
because we were careless,
and we let go too soon.

Sometimes I feel it's my fault, Jesica,
because I didn't take your picture last year,
and I feel really bad.

Sometimes I feel like it's my fault,
because I was never there,
because I never called.

But we'll all still be here,
and I know I can depend on Melissa,
Teresa, Jena, and Alex,
because I know that there's someone like me.

In loving memory of Jesica Ann Young

beautiful emotions, this piece is heartbreakingly sad, but i like the positive note that you ended this on, you always have people you can count on. keep sharing your work.

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

Wow.
This one made me cry...honest.
I've gone through something similar but not EXACTLY the same...They were just a good friend. But you- this was your best friend- I can't even begin to imagine your pain.
The poem was very well written. I hope things get better for you. =)

Very sad here Allysa......I've had 3 friends die on me......I know how this is.
Heal through time.

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