As I sit here at my computer
Trying not to shed any tears,
I am thinking back upon the past
Looking at the last two years.
When I first met you at the movie theather,
I thought you were a little lame
Running after me to catch up
And run a little game.
But I did get to know you
and we had a little fun
Talked on the phone , joking around
The good times.
Well, we went together for a while
And it seemed that it wouldn't work out.
But after the break-up we remained friends
There was no need to shout.
And that was acutally cool for us
You boosted my self-esteem
You tried to get back up with me
and I told you in your dreams.
Last night, I called your cell phone
I hadn't talked to you in about 7 weeks
So imagine my surprise
When I heard your mother speak
I asked for you, she asked me who I was
I told her that I was your friend
She asked me where I was at that moment.
I told her about to go out with a friend.
She asked me was I sitting down
I told her yes I was and felt my heart go still
She told me on May 14, 2004
That you were shot and killed.
I was on such a state of shock...
I almost thought it was a joke
But I heard your mother's voice on the other end
and I listened while her heart broke.
She told me that it was a friend of yours
That was playing around with a gun
It popped on accident;went thru your heart
Before she knew it, you were gone
Im crying now because you didn't have to die
All because he made a choice
He chose to play with a gun and in so,
Forever silenced your voice.
It pisses me off and makes me so sad
You were her only child, her baby son
And a friends accident cost you your life
And now what can I say now that your gone?
I will never talk to you again
Never have a conversation with you on the phone
Never laugh with you again.
Becuase of a dumb teenagers choice....you are gone.
I will miss you a lot
I will miss everything about you.
I will go on with my life
But I will never forget you.
and yes family........this story is unfortunately......true.
