A friend of mine passed away and this poem sortta sums up what im feeling right now, how confused i am and how i want to be there for another friend of mine (my ex who broke up with me because he was still in love with her). I cant really explain properly since im still to confused...


Untitled

How could you leave him?
He loved you so much
He broke up with me
To once again feel your warm touch

I didn’t care
I thought it was quite sweet
That he still loved you
With every heart beat

You left him alone
I know its true
In this world full of sin
He’s now so blue

He now wonders this world
Feeling lost and alone
He’s lost his first love
His heart in pieces, pieces unknown

Cant you come back to him?
Isn’t there a way?
For him to hold you in his arms once more
To be with you for one more day

How I wish I could of switch places
Have me on that hospital bed
Let me lay there with cancer
So Keith could be with you instead

How I would love to turn back time
And exchange your life
With one that is mine
And then it would be fine

I would have been dead
To leave Keith alone with you
You and him together
In love which is true

You were far to young
To leave this world
You had so much to live for
Keith, your friends, family and more

Í am sitting here crying
Writing with checks stained with tears
Wishing to have changed places with you
To have been given your fears

Keith loved you so much
It’s an understatment I know
But He wanted to be true to his heart
To be with you and never part.

You have left Keith alone
But I know one things for sure
He will never stop loving you
Now and still forever more.

To be with you was his one true wish
To hold you in his arms so tight
To kiss your sweet lips so softly
To be with you was his only plight

I want you back just to be with him
I want to trade with you
Come take my place
Let me suffer. Not Keith nor you

I cant really say much
I mean the seed has been sown
I could hate you for life
Because of the sorrow that has become known

How can I say I hate you?
You loved Keith with all your heart
Its unfourtunate that fate chose to end your life
So you and Keith had to part

Jamie I love you
More then you will ever know
You brought happiness into Keith’s Life
Yet tears he now shows

You became a dear friend
There is only one thing I hate
That’s not being able to say goodbye to you
Wanting To destroy this stupid thing called fate

I Promise you now dear friend of mine
To be there as much as I can
For Keith is now and forever going to be
A great friend to me

Goodbye Jamie i love you a lot
To be here instead still isnt what i want
I should have been able to change places with you
I Just hate seeing Keith so sad and so blue.
