My Final Goodbye Friend

  No one understands the way I feel
  why the good die so very young,
  my world feels constantly hazy though,
  I do not show it
  my world like a muddy puddle,
  when I think about you,
  When I cry I tell myself "stop crying you don't cry"
  Then I remember why I feel a torturing pain in me.
  She's already dead get over it I hear,
  it's really not that easy
  No matter how hard I try I'll never get you back.
  I lie when I say I'm okay to go to school and face all those miserable faces.
  My head feels cloudy,
  as I stand in front of the school frozen in my steps.
  The breeze flicks my hair back and forth,
  the day feels colder than usual 
  colder than winter,
  Because she is not there to warm it with her presence.
  Silently screaming to be heard as the world continues swirling around me.
  She was not only a teacher who taught me simple stuff I excel in today,
  But a friend.
  She's gone now but I'm okay,
  I cry because I never got to say goodbye.
  I can now feel her presence all around me,
  She is my guardian angel.
  I now can say how she died without bursting into tears,
  "heart problems" I will always whimper,
  It's in the hands of God and I will 
  never doubt his decisions.
  Because she is still here watching over me.
  This is my final good bye friend I'll never ever forget you,
  Rest in Peace.

I have had a one of my favorite teacher's die. I just couldn't believe it when it happened, but my mom explained that she was in a better world. One that didn't have sicknesses and all the other cruel stuff in the world. She will always be in my heart!

Lisa was my best friend for many many years! I miss her greatly. Linda, I wish I would have been given the chance to tell her goodbye. You don't know how much I loved her. It's been five years now and I think of her every day. I hope you are doing well.
