Why did God do this?
Why did he take you away from me?

I cant believe this happened,
you didnt even say good~bye.
That what mostly,
made me start to cry.

I didnt want you to go,
you left me way to soon.
Now when I think of you,
I look up at the moon.

I love you,
and forever I will.
Just answer me this,
why did you have to get killed?

You shouldnt have played with fire,
knowing that you would get burned.
And since you were murdered,
this is a lesson I have learned.

Erin- I am sooo sorry that you had to go through with the pain of losing someone you love!  It was a very good peom, although very sad.  Keep your chin up, things will get better!!

Erin, I really am having a hard time finding the words to express what I feel for you right now.  I've never lost a loved one so close in age.  I just pray that the healing has been a good process for you..

I know how you feel.  I lost one of my friends the last fourth of July.  I hope that your heart will begin to heal.  I know it will never be the same, but you have to try.  Just keep your head up.
