hey guys, i herd about the news just today ( monday) after school. gosh... umm.......... im really depressed, im really going to miss her a lot... it happened so quickly, i didnt even get a chance to say goodbye. i wish i had talked to Elissa more often, and asked if she needed help with nething. or just be a better friend, but i didnt take the oppurtounity to do that, i was just to caught up with my own life that i forgot to care for others. everytime you talk to someone, love, and care for them like its the last time, because that might just be the last time. keep in contact with everyone even if you dont know them that well, ask them how there doing, and be caring. last year i lost elliot, this year i lost elissa, who will i lose next year? love you lot Elissa
well heres a poem i wrote,
Keep running out into the desert in the middle of nothing and scream out into the air
Let your voice echo and screech across the land to those who truly care
Only to find that they were never really there
May the gathered tears you shed at night be the blood of your strength
And bleed a mighty river in which to swim its eternal length
Swim this mighty river no matter how far it flows
Hold on, to your faith in nothing, knowing not where it goes
Swim its current till you see the place where the river meets the tinted red skys
And find that only at the bottom of this waterfall is where your peace will lie
Grab the vine that hangs above you, the sifter of life waiting to take its toll
And upon this sifter sift apart your body and your soul
And with the wind your soul be carried away
Away from the hate, away from sorrow, away from the tears, to awake into another day
