Death's Cure

I can't seem
to get past your death.
I wasn't there the moment
you took your last breath
and it is killing me.

You were alone
in your car, I felt the need
to save you that night
pulling
  and pulling
at me.
I didn't go
and now all I hold
is this cross around my neck
(of yours').

I wish there was a cure
for death
but there isn't
and I'm left
with old memories
of you and me...

I am left
with the need
of you,
where you are laid to rest
I pray God will give
you just one more
breath.

Instead all there
remains is death.

    i know the loss of life and it touches me deeply when it happens. i have tried to get you by phone, but it seems that all of the numbers i have for you are no longer valid. i know it has to be a very hard time for you at the moment and i was so shocked when i saw this. i wish i could talk to you by phone. my number is still the same and will instant message it to you just in case you have lost it. i could say i'm sorry, but it won't make the pain go away. all i can do is try to be here for you as i also lost a brother in a tragic accident. as a matter of fact, i just found a small photo book of the pictures and things i have written about it. i might even post them here to this site to try to make people understand what happens when others get behind the wheel and drive under the influence. you know now that i have finally quit blaming myself for my brother's death. i just kept it built up inside for years thinking if i could have kept him on th phone, that he would not have been called into work that night. i guess on the brightside, i got to talk to him minutes before he was killed. however, it still seems like itz no consolation. i would tell you to email me but, i can't get back into my email. i forgot my password since i have not been there in months. somehow, i hope i get to talk to you even if itz here. please take care of yourself and know you have a shoulder to cry on, luvya, DARK.

    Incredible write... this is one of my favorites of yours which I have read. Very touching, and heartfelt. It's true, all that remains for us is death... but there is more than that ahead of us.
