( Has been quite some time sence I have been around, buisness and all...but today I really need some release and a place with friends.)

This is a dedication to (Link) a freind sence we were 8 years old. He was beaten and stabbed to death on Thursday, March 8th, 2001 at 8:10pm. Cold blooded and violently had a knife plunged thru his heart...so please bare with me!!))

Fly Away

Never drempt
you would be
so far away.
Never drempt
some thing would
take you away.
What to do
now that I can no longer
see your face...

Listen for the birds
to whisper your name
as they fly away.
Fly away.

Listen for the birds
to whisper your name
as YOU fly away.
Fly away.

Some things
will never
be the same.

As you
fly
away.

(With all of my heart and my souls screams of your name!!!)

I'm very sorry to hear about your friend. Having someone close to you die is always hard to deal with. When I read your poem I got this picture of a flock of doves rising up into the sky. Your poem is a wonderful tribute to your friend. Good job.

Like the others said I am so sorry to hear about your life-long friend. It's so sad that someone has to pass away like this. The poem was very sweet and true. Your friend will be flying with the birds and the angels like my mom in heaven. In time I hope your pain will ease, and you will always have the memories. Until then I've learned you just try and take it one day at a time.Take care.

I thank you all for just being there and for you words. I must admitt that I am having an aweful time dealing with this.
He was the person whom I played football with, rode 4-wheeler and motorcycle with, talked to me when I cried, made fun of me when I needed it , smiled when a smile was all I needed, and so much more. A freindship that spanned many many years , yet never fell no matter what.
Now...it seems to be so hard for me to accept that I will never see him smile when I walk in a room or hug me so tight that I think I will explode.
Nightmares seem to be all I have now...is aweful to go to sleep and dream of him standing up (only as the reaction of adrenaline) with is eyes white and then laying down to never get back up....sorry if that seems morbid, but is what happened.
I just can't accept this...not now and am not sure I will ever be able too.
I am honored that you all have bared with me and thankful that you all are just here!!
Should have had a friend for 31 more years, but due to weasel barf bags that don't desrve to breathe, I only had 31.....
once again...thank you all and I apologze for babbling!!
Until...ali

*hugs* what a senseless world we live in..
I'm so sorry hon. I'm glad you could come home to Dark and get it off your chest somewhat.
Remember him with all the love you feel now, you have a lifetime of memories and they WILL last forever...

Your welcome for my comment. I hope things get better for you in time. Because, it does take time espically if your as close to someone as you were to your friend. No you will never forget him but I hope the pain will ease in time. Take care.
