Yauch, I Cry

a tearful dedication to my lifelong brother, mentor, and friend Adam~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~aug.5, 1964-may 4, 2012

I owe you better than this...You were Heaven sent...
Eyes cascade tears I cry
do you know Y?   A. U.C.H.                   ~ (Y. A.ren't U. C.hillin' H.ere?)
I cry dry...
my ACE of spades, i miss you kid
my mentor
my man
my ILL-est friend
my Superman
my M.C.A.
why'd you have to fly, you'll never die...i cry i cry

the pen leaks
i sink 
it stinks it stings i cry i cry
side by side we were A.L.I.V.E. 
tho' i can hear Dechen cry, wipe tears from Lo's eye
wings you glide
the rhymes we rhymed, you and i
G -S.O.N. the sky, too short yir' time
the moon should refuse to shine
Losing your duty's shredding my mind i cry i cry
you remain so kind transcending your ending line
I CRY this way I crY I crY and I just do not own the right words to say, just as mc's squared you cared this way  
you shared melodies but now this sky's gone to Red from Grey,
i must make it anyway,
but trust when I say 
I love you MCA!

* I'm running into walls without you...

CAme back here to your Beasties Boy write. To tell you I just saw THIS that you wrote to Eileen: There's over 30,000 poems of nearly ever genre and form in my original writes, Only around 175 posted on here, but if you were to look back you will see many styles. My goodness. you have some old traditional forms in that huge collection?? Where are they all? I am dying to see them.

This is so sad. I was feeling so bad for you and then I noticed what Rhonda wrote below here. WEll, now I am wondering. WAs he actually a personal friend of yours? The poem is REALLY well written. I imagined it was truly a blood brother of yours.

My heart was breaking for you because I thought your brother died! I had tears in my eyes I'm a little embarrassed to admit. Then I realized you were writing a tribute to Adam from the Beastie Boys! Oh wow, I had to laugh at myself. I had a blond moment! Great poem either way. Love and Blessings, Rhonda
