You've left this world,
You've thought your time was done,
Little did you know how much you were loved.

I am in confusion,
I am in pain,
No matter how long its been,
I'll never forget how you fell to the pain.

Things in this world can never be fixed,
The death of a father is one of those,
A loss of a bestfriend is another.

It's so hard for me,
Who is there now,
In my sorrow and fear.

Nothing can replace,
No one ever will,
You will forever have a place in this heart.

branden-

this is such a heartfelt and touching
write...if you lost your father, i'm
very sorry...i lost my mom about nine
years ago and the pain of losing a parent
is something one never truly gets over...
but time helps to heal a little. take
care, and happy holidays. I look forward
to seeing more from you.

if you chase it,
it will surely fly away,instead
hold it close and watch it grow into
something beautiful"

Very sad branden--I'm really sorry to hear of your loss--and if this isn't about you personally, you managed to hit right on the target. Good to see you back here again!

Beautifully written. You capture the swirl of conflicting emotions very well. Having lost one of my bestfriends to suicide and another to heart complications I can empathize completely. The only thing that I can offer is that as time goes on you'll remember the good times more and more, the haunting images and thoughts will start to wane.
