1. Just One More Day
If I had just one more day...
I'd tell you I loved you.
I'd tell you I need you.
I'd tell you that you were the best thing that ever happened to me.
Death, grief, and anguish all go hand in hand. But death brings with it many questions as well. Why do we die? Is this life all we get? What is the purpose? Why do good people sometimes die young? What happens after death? Do dead people watch over their loved ones from heaven? Sometimes not having those answers can deprive us of much needed comfort and solace. One way to find comfort after the death of a loved one is to remember fondly all of the good times you spent with them. Expressing your feelings to a good friend or family member can help too.
If I had just one more day...
I'd tell you I loved you.
I'd tell you I need you.
I'd tell you that you were the best thing that ever happened to me.
This reminds me of my dear friend and mentor, Mark.
He died this year after a battling with a rare auto immune disorder/disease that caused him to be on a ventilator. He lost his right leg...

My best friend has gone away.
No more will we laugh and play,
No more games and whispered secrets shared.
No more comfort knowing she cared.
It's been a super bad start to this year. It seems like every week I have had to say goodbye to those I considered so dear. Many I didn't even get to talk to one last time. It's put me in a...

You never know the extent of a word
Until you use it
You never know the impact of a word
Until you abuse it
My grandfather was an amazing man. He died yesterday peacefully in his sleep. I already miss him so much. If only I could hug him one last time, to tell me that it was okay, that I knew he...
As the days go on,
I continue to cry.
Everything reminds me of you,
as I look upon the sky.
This is so close to what happened in my life. 15 vs 13, but so much the same. This was nicely put into words. My daughter lost her cousin. She did not survive a bad car accident. She was so...
I will never again
see your smiling face.
I will never again
feel your warm embrace.
I am 17 years old, and I lost my mother when I was 14 due to breast cancer. It's been a rough couple of years, so I know exactly what it is like to lose someone so close to you. I am sorry...
Why is the world still spinning?
Doesn't it know you're gone?
It's an end or some kind of beginning
But for everyone else life goes on
You know, I still sit around daily feeling crestfallen and betrayed by God for having taken my very best friend away from me. This above poem describes the way I am feeling now. I lost my...
Remember when the sun shined so bright?
You were here and you love me with all your might.
Now the good Lord has taken you away,
but in my heart you will always stay.
Las year I lost my best friend (Casey) to a car crash. She was 18 and I was 15. She was like my big sister and I miss her every day. I still cry myself to sleep every night because in the...
So, I am sitting here, writing this poem to you,
because right now it is all I can do.
I write all these poems from what I feel,
all these feelings I have are too real.
I was recently cheated on by a guy I was dating and I feel so horrible. Reading poetry helped alot.
She paints a pretty picture
But all of the ink has run red.
This picture is of a bloody battle
That is going on inside her head.
I have been cutting for 5-6 years and no one notices. I cry all the time in lessons and I still say I am fine, they believe me. I find it difficult to talk to people because I don't want them...
I miss you so much
You don't have a clue
You were like a brother
now my heart is in two
This really sums up how I feel I just lost my friend today, she went missing 3 weeks ago and they found her this morning dead hanging from a rope, I am always going to remember her, so I know...
Why'd you leave so soon?
I sit here with bitter gloom.
You always understood my fears.
You always stopped my pouring tears.
I just had to say my final goodbyes to a childhood friend Saturday and have to do it again this Wednesday. When God is ready to call you home, you must go. It's a hurtful feeling, I know, but...
I don't know what I've done wrong
They all keep telling me to be strong
But my heart will long
So I wrote this song
