As I sit in my room and look out the window,
I think how can you be gone? How did it happen so fast?
I don’t understand what happened,
What went wrong?
You were so young and full of life,
Now your six feet under.
It just doesn’t seem fair,
To take you away form the people you love and the people that love you back.
As I sit in my room and look out that window it makes me upset,
That you were the one that had to go.
So I broke that glass because I still feel and you cant,
I broke the glass because after three years I finally got so upset about your death.
I broke the glass,
And as I sit here not feeling,
Not one little thing.
I wounder how you would feel right now if it was me,
Would you have glass in your hand like me?
Or would you not even care?
But it doesn't matter,
Because I'm here and your there.
I'm the one with the broken glass in my hand,
And your sadly just the one that is six feet under.

Very powerful, I totally understand your emotional state. It's amazing that things can still hurt so much after so long. I pray that you will find an answer and gain some peace. I loved the repetitive use of the shattering glass, it worked really well and gave the poem that raw emotional edge.

You are absolutley right! It is unfair when the young die. I am sorry for your loss and for the loss of everyone who loved your friend.
I understand how years go by but the pain remains, lots of emotion in this powerful write.
