#73 My Best Friend

When you lose what is most precious, when you don't know what to do, when you don't know what to say - but you still know how you feel.

My Best Friend

by Athena

Once was here
now is gone
I will always
love forever
the laughs
the tears
the smiles
without her
my life has no direction
no ups nor downs
no smiles or frowns
I miss her
I cry
I see her
I lie
what ever went wrong
I can mend
I will always
love forever
my very best friend

I need to commend you,for loving your friend in words from the heart. 4 years ago,i got a phone call at 230 in the morning,my BEST friend had died suddenly/she was a single mom of a 9 year old little girl,but the only friend who loved me no matter what. Everyday I miss her,I crave her,. im sure you know . I need to tell you she wrote poetry. when her sister and I were going through her business papers,I found a poem she wrote in her journal,about Me,her best friend. As I read your beautiful poem, you remind me of her,Her name is Karla Merrick,she was 31 and would have loved your poem.

Yes. you touched my heart. I lost my best friend Larri last year and my very dear friend in america 3 years ago by a drunk driver the pain and heart ache will never leave. Your poem says it all. Thank you

This is MY LIFE. I've had the same "BEST FRIEND" for 10 yrs. I gave her a $70 "Best Friend" neclace for x-mas of "05". In January we had a non- reasonable canflict. now she's gone forever. and I regret not having her in my life. she was more than a "BEST FRIEND". she was a sister I wish I had. "I STILL LOVE HER WITH ALL MY HEART AND TIL THIS DAY SHE WILL ALWAYS BE IN MY HEART!"

i really loved this poem-i actually used it in english class. but i love it b/c im going through some rough times with my best friend and i just really connected with it. i feel like this poem really applied to me. i got my attention and i plan on sending to my best friend in hopes it will open her eyes and maybe make her realize what im going through.
