Description The impact of a message
leaves us standing in disbelief.
We're dreaming, we must be sleeping.
Reality is so hard to perceive.
Tears form in our eyes,
they race down our face.
We're not sure what we're crying for,
We feel so out of place.

The reality settles in our stomachs,
We can't believe it's real.
It's a turning point in our lives
and we don't know how to feel.
Oh how we long to tell you,
to tell you one goodbye.
We know we're going to miss you
and we can only cry.

It hurts to know you're dead
when you look so sound asleep.
It hurts to know that you can't hear
and that you'll never speak.
It hurts to know your only existence
is within our lonely minds.
It hurts to take things for granted,
how could we be so blind?

It's hard trying to sleep at night
with you haunting our dreams.
We'd gladly switch you places,
for it would be for better things
Sometimes we wish we'd never wake
because we're living in sorrow.
If we can get through the night,
we'll see the light tomorrow.

The third stanza has me at a loss for words, beautiful imagery, and touching topic

the light tomorrow? it's only the sun, a burning ball of hydrogren and helium gasses being fused together... nothing more. when you keep having this happen, over and over again, each time you get more and more depressed, it's like the memory repeats itself, an infinte amount of times in your head. a person is gone, missing is inevitable, but what get's me is the fact that in life there has to be loss...why can't everyone just be happy? a world without these negative emotions would be paradise, which we all know to be as heaven...which is why suicide seems so lustful.

megan this is so sad. One thing that bugs me is that you said he can't hear and only exsists in your mind.
He is up there. Watching. And I'm sure he's loving your poetry.
well done. I understand why she almost cried.
