Entropy becomes me
As i drift to sleep
*Fare well
The end came gently
i must go out
The fog
*the fog is rising
Today a girl left this earth
After being strong
Battling against the deadly evil
Cancer

And my problems seem big
I have life
The precious gift that so often gets taken for granted

But you see,
we only appreciate what we have when we no longer have it

Sad, I know
But it's how we are

So appreciate everyday that you have
When you wake up
Thank god for your life
And live each day likes its your last

Because you never know when father time will come for you
I wrote this poem today after finding out that a girl in my school passed away with cancer. It upset me so much because she was so strong and positive about her fight and recovery. She didn't deserve to leave the earth so soon and it just makes me thank God for the life I have, and for my health.

Losing myself in the ocean
Losing myself in the sea
Lost myself in my doubt once
That's when you were there for me
Lost myself in the tizzy of others
Lost myself to their greed
Found myself in the South, now
But losing myself to this grief
Bring me back to the lake side
Bring me back to the trees
Bring me all of the skyline
Bring me the Horizon,
Bring me to my knees
Bring me back my sweet Brittany
Or bring to where she sleeps
Lost myself in your waters
Lost myself in your clouds
Lost myself in your eyes, more than once
I'm losing myself in your absence but I'll never be lonely again.
I'll pray for you to my statue
I'll pray you're meeting your dreams
I'll pray you're dancing with shadows and lights
I'll hold your memory on lonely nights
I'll cry into my pillow
I'll cry up into my sky
I'll cry to the moon and stars and willows
I'll smile after every storm is gone
Whisper to me when you miss me
Whisper to me from beyond
Call me and tell me Nahhhhh Nahh
Call to me from the abandoned houses
Every shattered pane is your window
Call to me from the broken homes and lost buildings
Those places where where you felt whole
You drew yourself to the broken
You pulled in the pieces and loved
You drew the lonely ones towards you
You leave us with all of this love.
I'll celebrate every moment
I'll taste every breath
I'll cherish each human, and each little pet
I'll love with all I have left
Thank you for being my friend.

We had some times,
Didn't we.
We saw wonders,
And horrors.
We watched crystal sunrises,
And held hands as the evening devoured the sky.
We shared our lustful moments,
And in the silent times we shared our tears.
I don't know many things,
But i know this,
We danced.
Danced our whole lives long.
Even though where tired now,
We didn't stop until the end of the songs.
I remember how we danced.
if i take anything with me,
I will take our dance.
Smiling gone happily into the dark.

Long long time ago,
When this very moment,
is a chain of past,
I will ask you  - my darling,
If tomorrow
will last.
In memory of The Moment.

If I close my eyes long enough,
I can see you at the stop light
With your arm out the window.
And the shape it made, took me down.

If I close my eyes long enough,
I can see that mouth
As you bring your cigarette up for a puff.
And the shape it made left me limp.

If I close my eyes long enough,
I can hear that laugh as you lean out
Long enough for me to read what your face wrote.
And the sound it made, shook my bones.

I have walked by
Your eternal bedside
Many times I have cried
For the loss of innocent lives

I have walked by
Your past life
Memories locked in
A closed casket

Never to be met again.
