Another child lost to this cold world
A thousand smiles just thrown to the wolves
Yet all I think about is how it should have been me.
And every time I lose someone else I always end up blaming myself
When will I set myself free from all my grief
And I promise you I will live every day trying to show the world that you were loved and that you meant something to us all
You could have been such a star but this life tore you from our hearts and now death will linger on our minds.
One day we’ll move on but we’ll always have a monument to you inside of each of our hearts
And no song that I sing can bring you back to me or anyone else but it’s all we can do to keep you alive
And I’ll curse the sky and I’ll scream at the winter nights but I know that you wouldn’t want me to drown forever in my own damn grief and you’d do the same for me
For you my friend I will live my life

- Oh, and I rate that 5/5. And also, if you see my comments that has been repeated, sorry. My computer has some glitches and caused them to repeat what I've written.

I'm sorry about your loss. I, too, lost a friend that was killed, but from his stepfather who was a ranger in our county. And I wrote a poem about him.
It's nice to know that someone else has the same pain and was willing to share it. - Report As Spam
