Love is like a flower so soft against the skin
wondering why you not here with me it hurts deep within
i look up at the stars at night wishing you were here
looking back on the memories is my deepest fear crying
i asked god why he took you he said it was your time
because people you thought were your friends committed a crime
05.23.07 was the day that you went
not knowing what had happened people had a fit
i will never forget the look on your mama's face when they told her it was you
she screamed and cried not knowing what to do crying
just no each day she holds you close to her heat
that way you and her will never be apart
i will never forget the day you leave me behind just remember
to wait for me at the gates when it is my time heart

Oh, Gawd. I feel so sorry for you! A few minor spelling mistakes, but that was about the most touching poems yet. 5
