The Loss of a Friend
In a voice both gentle and wise
He whispered hope through my life
Revealing a love that could surprise
With its tenderness and light,
Always lifting my heart from the dark
Raining sparks of wonder across my nights
Filling my soul with sunshine,
My heart with laughter
Kindness that would remind me there
Is music, there is passion
There is a stirring inside that never
Subsides,

The Loss of My Friend
Oh sorrows I pray thee - cast not your long shadow upon me. Favor me instead with your blind eye - leaving me to bask in the radiant glow of warming sun and the taste of loving memories upon my heart. Let me be cleansed by the joy of this painful void now forever

Two Friends
They met on the beach as children…too young to comprehend
the difference in their colors…and they soon became two friends.
Two lives they happily shared…two lives easily aligned
They would remain two friends forever…their two hearts intertwined.
They came together often…they laughed and cried and played
So many moments they’ve lost count…so many memories they made.
When they graduated high school

On the Loss of a Friend Who Still Lives
On the Loss of a Friend (Who Still Lives!)
Though it happens quite seldom, a friendship can wither and die
on the vine when we don't see it coming, and pain smokes a peace
pipe with loss. Do I insult again an old friend who won't speak?
Should I say, "Mea culpa, " assuage friend's hurt feelings or

Eulogy
the sunrise after
you left
woke no one
made no birds sing
it rose in the mourning
it's light tiptoed on the edge of clouds
who shook their heads
as they witnessed the aftermath
noon came as a whisper
the clouds burst into tears
as the sun revealed the new reality
that you
are never to return

The Loss of a Friend
The loss of a friend
can be a hard deal in life.
A friend is more than a stranger,
or is more than a fool looking for love;
a friend is the other half of heart and soul.
A loss of a friend
can be devastating,
and can crush such a soul,
and break such a fragile heart
and some times kill a person;
but

Im Your Friend Forever Waiting For Your Call
Watching closely I see the tear
I see you crying but cannot hear
Drowning sorrows without a sound
Wails of emotion without a resound
Let it all out let it all flow
Release your pain so you can grow
Paint your darkest troubles on my wall
I’m your friend forever waiting for your call
Listening patiently for your sadness to swoon
I turn up

My Favorite Memory
My dearest friend I miss you so
Often times remembering how you helped others grow
Always cheering others up when they were down
Offering a hug when ever you saw a frown
I still hear your laughter within my mind
I see your smile in any happiness I may find
I count myself lucky to have had a friend so true
My

Farewell My Friend
I remember the days that we
spent together in my pursuit to
further my knowledge, you as
my mentor and I as your pupil.
Down through the years we have
had more then just a teacher and
pupil relationship, we became the
very best of friends.
I watched your hair turn grey and then
you watched mine, sadly I received
news today coming from

You'Ve Lost Me Forever
Oh what a mess you have created,
Spread rumors about me, and stabbed me in the back,
Then was nice to me in my face,
You know I hate people like that, and friends
They don't do that, maybe you were never a
True friend to begin with,
Maybe you were always this stale
Person, who never really gave a care.
But it

Breaking Point
My best friend is gone, Ended her life
Turned around and she cut herself with a knife
Body lain, Soaked in blood in the bathroom tub
Why did she have to join the suicide club?
Kassidy's gone, I dont know what to do
My other friend Savannah, Im pretty sure she's gone too
Got a knife, got depressed, and cut her

Left Behind
My tender eyes can't take more tears
My swollen heart can't bleed more fears
A friend is friends love Devine
But this friendship I should leave behind
My fragile soul is shattered glass
My desperate mind is a painful blast
A friend should be friends love Devine

My hardened feelings spin out of

My So Called Friendship
A friend looks out for u when your down.
A friend will make your life round.
Without a friend or friends you wouldn't be the same.
They will always take away the pain.
If you don't understand.
Your friends will help you on dry land.
Friendship is like a teddy bear.
Cause they will help you all the way and share.
But in

Endless Sorrow
She sat under the willow tree,
That sunny afternoon.
Everyone was playing outside,
While she just sat there drawing.
She was drawing a picture of the kids playing,
They looked so happy.
While she was filled with sorrow.
It wasn’t fair,
How they didn’t even know.
Know that she was slowly dieing inside.
She had suffered a great loss,
Not even a week before,
Her best
