Taken away.
Too young to die.
So many questions.
Wondering why.

Emptiness inside.
I can't gain control.
No explanation,
for the like he stole.

Pain in my heart.
Trying to hold on.
I don't understand.
He did nothing wrong.

Tears in my eyes.
I can't clearly see.
How could this happen?
How could this be?

Someone explain.
I can't comprehend.
He can't be gone.
Too soon to end.

So many questions.
Wondering why.
Taken away.
Too young to die.

In memory of
Josh Mixon
1979-1997
I will never forget your smile.

We do remember their smiles, don't we.
I'll howl tonight for him.
Joel.

 I howl a mornful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.

Kristi*  I'm sorry for your loss and this was a beautiful piece of work, what I mean by that is....you put your heart into this and it showed in every line.

Thank you all for caring.  Josh was my cousin and close friend.  He was the victim of a cold-blooded murder in '97, one month after his 18th birthday.  Thankfully the man who took his life was sentenced to life without parole last year.

 Smile!
