All I wanna do is cry.
I should have been the one to die.
Even though I know the answer
I keep asking myself why?
Nobody deserves to go through this.
She was too young. Only 18.
I don't know what happened.
She seemed fine. She seemed happy.
But I was wrong and now she's gone.
I will never forget.
I will never forgive myself.
I wish I could go back in time.
Make sure everything was fine.
If I could do that I would.
But sadly I can't.
It's too late now.
I don't want to face the facts.
All I wanna do is cry.
I think I will do just that.

So even though this poem is depressing I had to write it. It is in loving memory of one of my best friends Melissa. She killed herself on April 21, 2010 at the age of only 18. R.I.P. Melissa. 11-17-91 to 4-21-10. I miss you girlie and I wish you wouldn't have done this. :'(
