You Lose
When you win
and get excited

You Lose
when you are happy
and when you are sad

Why can't we ever win
life goes on
our hearts always beat

when a friend dies the beat
loses its thump and it just kind of pumps
when you lose

You wish you could win.
When you win you want to lose
I lost again

another friend
I lost yesterday
Mark... he died


godbless you mark
We all love you
We will never forget you.

Hmmm...this was a thought-provoking piece. Very blunt and painful...

If you don't mind my prying, were you close to Mark? How did he die?

Mark was from my church. We were at a yout conference and he died. I am taking it tough, I can't believe he actually died. It hurts and it hurts bad. You know Larry right? Well last year his daughter died. His daughter was my english teacher. He died the same way. So it hurts really bad.
