Never say goodbye, because goodbye means going away, and going away means forgetting.
~Peter Pan

All the best people are mad.
~Alice


Innocence, youth, all stolen away,
such young age,
such a sad day,
Nothing we could do to make you stay,
nothing but pray,
what could we say,
Never again will you laugh or play,
but it's okay,
in heaven you lay

This poem was inspired by my best friends god-brother Tyler, who died of Leukemia at age five.
