Happy 18th Birthday Jessie


Here we go again,
another birthday without you.
Blowing out my candles,
making wishes for you too.

Instead of buying you clothes or lip-gloss,
I leave flowers on your grave.
People do their best to cheer me up,
it's suppose to be a happy day.

I hold back tears,
until I'm laying in my room.
Listening to all your favorite songs,
and writing a letter to you.

Baby Girl I miss you,
I think of you each day.
I haven't forgotten you,
or our special birthday.


I love you Jessica Lynn
RIP Baby Girl
Happy Birthday to Us

Author notes

It still hurts like she died yestarday. I still miss her more then anything, and I still finding myself crying myself to sleep at night, when I think of her. I love her, and I miss her, and the pain never fades. We shared the same birthday, though she was a year older. My birthday isn't a happy day, never will be. It's a day that I will drink away my pain, try to hide my sadness til I hit the sheets, and then I'll cry myself to sleep.... *I love you Jessie*

    oh wow, i dont know what it is about this poem exactly, but it brings tears to my eyes.
    i can feel your pain, im almost crying your tears. this is beautiful, but its such a shame that a tragedy had to happen in order for it to take form.

    Superb

    I can not express how sorry I am by your loss. The pain was so evident, it brought a lump to my throat. I have no idea of the pain you feel. This gave me a glimpse of that pain. To say that it will get better is such cliche, but to say that you honor her memory by living and writing fits best in my belief. Blessed Be and keep writing. ]>-} Darker

    This would have been heart wrenching, especially on your birthday,but maybe that's why it happened on that day for rememberance. Would your baby want you to be sad, no for you will see her again when our maker comes.Brandy3

    I don't want her to cry, but easier said then done... We celebrated our birthday's together for 4years, and skipped one before she died. This is my 3rd birthday without her, and it hurts just as bad as the first one. I'm trying not to cry, and I'm trying to be strong. Holding all the tears inside, and barrying my heart with pretend smiles and laughter. Death hasn't torn us apart, our friendship is still there.. it's just not the same. I love you Sara Dawn, thank you sis

    Sis,

    As you know I lost my best friend too, but for me, she didn't die on any special day as my birthday or hers, or an anniversary that would make it just as painful, but I do know how it feels to have a part of you die with her and never come back, Your birthday should be such a happy day for you and yet it isn't, its like someone telling you everything is going to be okay at a funeral... you just know its not. But what I will say, and my advice to you is, is that, my best friend has been gone for three years now, and do you know what gets me through her birthday, her anniversaries and even the holidays? I tell myself that she is a part of me, and if I cry, she's crying... and you don't want her to cry on your birthdays do you? Not many people have the same birthdays, much less Best Friends! I have no doubt that you two had a bond, so close and so strong that what makes you think death could seperate it? Death doesn't... Jessie is still a part of you and she will either rejoice with your smiles and laughter, or cry with your tears in those precious eyes and heart. I know its hard babygirl, but please remember what I'm telling you. I love you and I am sending you something as a belated birthday / Thanksgiving gift ... Could you plz send me the address I should send it too peas --- Your Sara Dawn

    I'm terrebly sorry for you loss

    OMG. I'm so sorry. I wish there was more I can say but there isn't. Keep your head up and hopefully it gets better. I can't promise that the pain in your heart goes away because my sister died in '99 and it still hurts today. I want to join her but I know that I niece I need to live for. Keep up the good work and I'm terrebly sorry for your loss. But at least you have a grave to go to... my sister wanted to be creamated... so all I have left are the memories and items that were hers. Extrordanary job and keep up the work. I'm here if you ever need to talk.

    This is really sad hun and I am sorry that you lost your friend. I know what its like to lose a best friend, my best friend died 2 years ago and it still hurts like it did the day she passed away. Stay strong and remember that she is watching over you until they day you and her may meet again.

    I'm so sorry babydoll. I know that saying I'm sorry won't bring her back or ease your pain, but I am sorry. I know a pain like this, mine is no where near as great.....but I suppose I hate the holidays because my great-grandma died like two days before thanksgiving and we always went to her house to celebrate it. This time of the year is when my depression is the worst. Anywho, I love you hunny.....dry your tears because your angel is in heaven smiling down on you.
    love always,

    Beautifully sad

    I wish I could say the pain will one day go away... but in my own experience... it hasn't and it's been 3 years. I guess the one thing that has kept me going is reminding myself my friend is in a better place. I'm sorry that you feel this pain, and I wish I could take it away because you shouldn't have to feel the heartache that you do. It's a beautiful poem though...
