I was going through a lot
No one understood
I wanted to sit alone
I didn't want to speak
I needed to focus on me
I needed to fix somethings
Everyone was mad
Everyone wanted me to speak
They would push my limits
They didn't understand
What I was doing was good
You, understood
You, gave me my space
When I sat alone at lunch
You just sat right next to me
Told me you wouldn't speak
You understood what I was doing
You just didn't want me to sit alone
I love you for that
I thank you everyday
You understood
When no one else did
School ended
We graduated
I remember the look on your face
You were ready to take on life
You looked me in the eyes
“We did it” you said
You hugged me
Summer took me to California
Summer kept you home
We didn't talk much
I wish we did
Because that one summer day
I got the call
I could breath
I couldn't speak
All I could do was cry
I wanted to fly back
And say goodbye
You crashed your car
And now you're gone

Wow, this is so tragic. It shows to never take someone for granted because they won't always be there. We never know what day is the last. I have also lost friends and family with no warning. Powerful write.
