Do you ever cry yourself to sleep at night
Praying and hoping everything will be alright
No matter what you try to say or do
Nothing will erase the moments with you
I will never forget you and cherish our memories until i die
But now your up in heavon and its finally time to say goodbye
Theres been some bad times, but mostly fun
Hard to believe your life is already done
But your up in heavon now, they say is a better place
And the memories we spent together will never be erased
Its really hard to believe your actually gone
It was just last summer when we partied till dawn
I guess you didnt see that train coming straight for you
I wish i could magically go back and let you get through
When I start to miss you, ill remember the fun times we had
Like when you was kicking the possum and fell, thought you was hurt real bad
But you jumped up and acted like it was a little fall
Although it was 3 feet deep and the water really tall
Or the time we was on my front porch watching the stars
I will never forget those memories because they was ours
I know your up there, watching down on all of your friends
But its really sad to think that you life already has end
Do you ever cry yourself to sleep at night
Praying and hoping everything will be alright
No matter what you try to say or do
Nothing will erase the moments with you
I will never forget you and cherish our memories until i die
But now your up in heavon and its finally time to say goodbye

Wow, so emotional. I can relate - I lost my older brother last year. Thanks and good luck in my contest

This was a very impressive work. Asking if they ever cry themselves to sleep at night was just so tragically sad, but really beautiful in a way. No matter how distant you are, you're still moarning together.

Hey I really love this... but I just spotted some glaring grammatical errors- "your up", "we was", "they was"... aww sorry but could you correct them?

Your poem was really good, and I admire the fact that you are just keeping the memories as a last keepsake of Kyle, and letting him go...by saying goodbye.
Thank you so much for entering my contest and all the best to you!
