yes, the truth about how i feel seems to be coming out in here. this is a disclaimer. lots of time and heart went into this one..beware.

ok, i woke up this morning and decided to write. yes, i wrote a poem, and you have to put up with it now, cause it's how i feel, and that's what i put in here, so, :P

Slowly

Slowly,
right before my eyes
I find that death
has no disguise.

It happens
to everyone,
be by nature,
or by gun.

Slowly,
I see my best friend die.
Nothing I can do
but cry.

The sadness seems to take me in.
Try after try,
I can't breathe again.

Slowly,
there becomes a way
to cope with this,
day by day.

I call my sister,
and tell her about
what's happening,
and she helps out.

Slowly,
I tell her how I feel,
to me this all seems
too unreal.

she didn't have to
be there, but was.
And she's right there for me
because

Slowly,
I have to say good bye.
Knowing that my friend
might die.

I'll always remember
the time we shared.
And that there was
one more heart that cared.

yup, that's kinda how i feel right now. i called kristen and told her everything that was going on before i came over here (to ashley's) last night, so she knows what's going on. i got a "hang in there sis" from her. she dunno how much that meant either. me n ashley talked for a while before she went to sleep. i actualy slept in her lil bro's bed last night, didn't sleep on the floor, so we were a couple rooms apart when she went to bed. but, it was good talkin to her like that, it really helped out. see, i've only had one person die in my life that i've noticed, and i was like, 6 then. all i know is that my grandpa died, i wore all black that day...then that summer, i asked daddy if we were gonna go over to his house, and he said he wasn't there anymore...

and now here i sit, on ashley's computer, thinking about what may or may not happen. wishing that, one time, i could see this person, who is my best friend, dying or not...shoot, i hear shakira, and i think about her. found out she's like, obsessed with her music. and ashley happens to listen to pop around the house, so i've heard it a few times today. when i did sleep last night, i cried myself into it..think i had maybe 4 hours put together of all the times i tried to. i just keep thinking, damn landa, what would happen if something like this were to happen to ashley, or lisa, or kristen...they're geting lots of i love yous and hugs right now...i don't want to ever let them think i don't care and everything, who knows what tomorrow brings?

damn, this has taken almost an hour now...i better start wraping things up for now. well, ashley, kristen, lisa, and kendall, love you guys. i'm gonna go before this gets any longer. thanks for puttin up with me this long everyone. bye.
