the day you died

you were here
and now you aren't!
i cant stand
us apart!
you were here
when i needed you
you helped me
when i had the flu!
but then one day i got a call,
that you had died
and still to this day
my eyes haven't dried!
that's not fare
you were so young
we miss you more every day
we have words that are still unsung!
i never even got to say "bye"
not even "i love you"
that last thing i said was "see you later"
but i guess that is still true.
you in that car with 4 other people
you were the only one
that actually died
at 16 years old, your life shouldn't be done!
just remember i love you
and that's why i cry,
that's not fare
why were you the one to die?

Author notes

this is a poem i wrote about my first love jose. he was driveing on the way to my house and he was in the passanger seat. a drunk driver hit his car door. the parametic said he didnt die right away. they said he cried for a min before he died. and ryan, jacod, and tyler said they hurd him mumble one last thing. they said they hurd him say "stefaknee, remember i love you and i WILL see you soon". so to this day i havent drank any alcohol and i am totally agenst drunk driveing. PLEASE DONT DRINK AND DRIVE and no matter what anyone says it is better to listen and learn than to live and learn.

    Wow. I know that it has got to be very hard to deal with such a suffering. The suddeness is what makes it hurt even more. I'm so sorry for your loss.

    Safely hidden the darkness,
