Goodbye my old friendA Poem by Boy of the redA poem to my dear friend Jackson. Departed but not forgotten
Oh how I miss you,
I miss your words, Running through my ears, Promising it will be better, Promising I will always be ok, Promising you will always be here. But you left me. Only your words and my memories remain. I still miss you more than ever. Oh how I love you. I still love you. When you were here, We were more than friends. Closer than brothers. Loved each other more than just lovers. You were my hope. You were my heart. You were my life. You were....everything. Now your gone. I still love you. Oh how I must let you go. I will never forget you. I will never forget the words you spoke, The way you made me feel safe. The way you defended me when no one would. You will always be in my heart, But I must go with what you said in your final words. The last words you ever wrote. Written in a letter, Found on your hanging body. I cried for years. I still do . But you told me I would find another. Another who would make me happy, Even more than you did, If I only held on. I held on my friend. I held on. You were right my friend. You were right. She has made me so happy. You would have loved her and been so proud. She protects me and I protect her. She keeps me from the terrible habits. She makes the horrible thoughts and voices stop. I can finally be me again. She makes me so happy. You would be happy to see me now. I've done so much. I've helped so many people just as you told me too. You will always be in my heart. You will always be on my mind. But there is another just as you promised. I love you my old friend. You will be in me forever. Hopefully you are in a better place. Goodbye my friend, I am happy now. I am finally....happy.
