Memories

I lost my best friend to cancer when he was only 12. He was my world, my lifeline to hold onto, when nothing was good in my life. No matter what he was going through, he would always be there for me.

You meant the world to me,

When nothing went right, 

And when I just needed somebody to

Hold me close and whisper it'll be alright,

You were there.

I feel so lost now, ever since you're gone,

I miss you, I miss you so much,

Words cannot describe. You were my lifeline,

When I was beaten down, and I went to your room,

You were there.

Now I have nobody in this life,

Nobody that cares about me. 

Now I have nobody who loves me as much as you did,

When I had nowhere else to stay, 

You were there.

When I was kicked, punched and screamed at,

When i was begging with all my heart,

Not to hit me any longer, when they would finally stop,

And when I would come to you, for help, comfort and safety,

You were there.

But now that you're gone,

For doing the right thing, 

Do you know how hard it is. for me to let go?

But I have to, if this is for the best. If I leave now,

Will you be there? 

Author's Note

Do you ever miss someone so much, that you are willing to leave, to do anything, to meet them again?

I feel your pain. I too miss someone so much it hurts every fibre of my being, but I take comfort in knowing, one day, we will meet again. I too wrote a poem about her called 'EMMA'. Great write emotions ebb and flow with each stanza. Keep it up

thankyou so much for your review. Yes, it hurts so much doesn't it? Sometimes, I feel words are not strong enough to describe the pain, the grief, you are experiencing. Thankyou, and I'll be sure to check out Emma! Thanks so much again.
