Nightmares,
Dreams of your pain
shattering my heart's frontier
What was there for you to gain?
You were beautiful, amazing, sweet
You were mine,
You made me feel complete
Then you were gone, within a moment's time
Our last night together,
You told me no more tears were to be shed
That you'd survive, no matter the weather
That you'd come back alive, not dead
Your words ring within me now
They make me weak from memory
I feel like I've been hit with the plow
I miss you Jeje, life without you has become dreary
These tears that fall,
They seem sometimes never to stop
But other times, they are stalled
even though they're filled to the top
I used to ask why,
but I know that's not what you'd want
So instead I don't cry
and I don't thrash about
I live brightly,
in your honor,
Securing your smile, your love, your life tightly
In this vault of southern manor
Blessed Be Old Friend
Till I See You Again
I Love you Jeje, Merry Part.
We will meet, where it once did all start.
Author notes
her family prefers me to not give her name at this time to anyone. She was my exgirlfriend and my best friend. I called her Jeje. She was gone 2 years. She past away in June 2007

War steals away our friends
It's unfair how war takes those special people away. That is why I think war is so stupid. Why cant we all just get along peacefully. Such a waste of lives, funds and time.
My favourite lines are:
"I live brightly,
in your honor,
Securing your smile, your love, your life tightly
In this vault of southern manor"

Your loved one died serving her country, there is honor in that though it is so hard for you so hard. I am sorry you have to hurt like this so very sorry.
