Since I mentioned it...

I decided that I'd start posting some of my poetry before I got to posting some old stories. Unless I say it's new, these are posted on VFB, but not everyone here is a member tere, so...

Anyway, here's the first one. I wrote this one when one of my high school classmates died.


Letter To Matt

It doesn't really help,
that I didn't know you well.
Cause I can still hear your voice,
loud and clear as a bell.

Everytime you were in class,
My day would turn bright.
You made all of us laugh,
And you made our spirits bright.

Today you weren't in history,
and everyone tried to cope.
We sat in our seats in silence,
We each had our own fears and hopes.

Everyone was quiet,
No one made a noise.
I just stared at your seat,
But nothing could fill the void.

So, Matt, if you can hear,
And, Matt, if you can see,
You know how much we miss you,
And how sad we all will be.

So, if I could please,
There's one thing I'd like to say.
You were liked so well here,
That a little of each of us died that day.
