"Rest In Peace" - 12/15/2004, My latest poem..still kind of old though Options

[J-DraGoNz]

This was the latest poem I've written (it's been a long while since I've written any poetry) but I wrote this on December 15th 2004. It's about a close friend of mine who was murdered the previous day. Drop ya thoughts. Thanks for readin'. One.



A young, beautiful girl; just at the age of fifteen,
With so much potential to do so many great things,
A girl so sweet with many ambitions and dreams,
But struck down at her peak; a disaster unseen,
How can this be? I still can't believe,
That something so tragic would happen to someone so sweet,
I miss you terribly, I know everybody does,
You were more than a great friend; an Angel sent from above,
It's hard to imagine life without your presence,
You were more than a part of mine; you were the essence,
I cried so much when I first heard the news,
It was a shock to me; I was so confused,
I refused to believe it; I remember the day clearly,
It was early in the morning; half past three,
Fearfully knowing the truth; I called you and texted you,
Then cried again while imagining the pain that you went through,
That same day, I stopped by your house around six A.M.,
I sat still in my car, not even daring to look in,
I sat there in sadness; knowing I'd never see you again,
It tore me inside knowing that I had lost a close friend,
I remember when we used to talk on the phone all night,
I remember looking with you in the sky for stars shining bright,
I remember the way you made me laugh and your beautiful smile,
I remember thinking how spending time with you was so worthwhile,
I will remember the things that you taught me forever,
And I will never forget the times that we spent together,
I miss you dearly, and I always will,
But now I realize that you are here still,
Because even though you're gone, we will never be apart,
For you will reside forever within my heart.
