This is about a boy in my youth group that commited suicide. I didn't really know him, but I thought I'd make a tribute to him. So here it is. Goodbye to a friend in memory of Jesse you took your life in whats seems like just the other day yeah you were quiet, you never did have much to say but everyone thought you were you were ok, everything was fine you looked great, but you weren't, but there wasn't any sign sure, you were different, but it didn't really bother us much some were scared of you, afriad to look or touch but we knew the real you, that seemed to be a nice guy ok, sometimes you were distant, sometimes shy but i guess nobody knew how you really felt inside i suppose no one tried, maybe thats why you shot yourself and died *~"Sometimes I wish I was a little girl again--because bruised knees heal faster than broken hearts."~* |

VERY sad here. I know you didn't know him, but it's just always so sad when somebody results to such actions to improve their internal being....well not improve, but just plain end it. My prayers go out to Jesse's family. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

suicide can be so painful to hear of, especially when its someone you knew. It's always hard to look back and think if only. Perhaps as well as praying for Jesse's family, we can pray for you and your youth group. ALLIE |

Beautiful tribute, sad really, I can't imagine how this person must have felt to believe that the only way out it by killing himself. Good luck. Planning big can be a gamble...I have already rolled the dice! |

This is so sad. BUt a beautiful tribute. Your friend is somewhere better... just keep that in mind. I'm sorry you had to deal with this. It still effects you even if you werent close... Nicely done. I really enjoyed this. --Marie You can’t expect the roses to grow without the weeds. |
