You are my best boy friend,
I know that this is going to end.
Maybe we will stay in touch,
or maybe it might be too much.
You're killing, for what you believe,
but when it's you, I'll sit and grieve.
Because this situation is so surreal,
I'm mixed up on what to feel.
You say you need my support,
what I need is your comfort.
I can't live knowing your dead,
replaying all my words unsaid.
This is it, both part in different ways,
our paths have left us falling astray.
I know I won't be saying goodbye;
tears knowing, you might just die.
When you leave I won't feel your love,
nothing else in this world is enough.
I'd do anything to hold your hand,
give one last hug, again and again.
Kiss your lips just one last time,
I can hope, you'll change your mind.
Author notes
My best friend lives about 2500 miles away from me. I have known him since I was in first grade. Ever since then he has wanted to join the army. When he turns 17 he is leaving, and I won't get the chance to say goodbye, or tell him just how much I love him. He has no idea how much I need him, and how much I love him. He also has a gf.

Wow! I truely don't know what to say. If the killing is fighting for our country, I say love him while he's here, who's to say he'll die. If it's another type of killing, I say cut your losses now, love and pray for him from a distance. Great write. God bless.
