Array ( [sid] => 23680 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => One Year [time] => 2003-09-23 08:05:00 [hometext] => In April of 2002, I lost my best friend, and this is a reflection on the year since she left this world. [bodytext] => One year,
I can’t believe it’s gone.
Seems like only yesterday
We were back in the sixth grade

Running
O so wild,
O so free.

A year ago
It all slipped away
So much has happened
So much has changed

Still
Some different
Some same.

366 days ago
I was a whole person
I had my best friend
Though so many miles apart.

Don’t
Know how
Know when

A year ago
You became an angel
Left it all behind
In search of a better place.

No more
Sadness
Pain

One Year,
I have a new niece now
I’ve seen more of the world
I’ve been through so much.

You’re
In heaven
Smiling Down


Last year,
At this time I had no clue
That all this was to happen
But I’d do it all again ten thousand times

Just to
See you
Talk to you

Just one year,
Seems like an entire lifetime
An eternity without you
But a minute with you

Would be
Heaven.

I cried reading this. I know exactly what it feels like...just one minute, even one second to see your best friend again would be enough. And all the changes you go through without them by your side, hoping they're watching over you. Please keep writing.
