Poetry: Death of a friend

by Mark Richards

I shall always remember You

I shall always remember you,
All the times we shared and times I was afraid to tell you,
Afraid to say the words that were true
The words that I LOVED YOU.

Time was a thief with you and I
When I realized how much I cared
You had died.

And forgiving myself is something that is hard

For the day you came to school to try and mend
Broken fences I turned away in anger. Not wanting
To show how much I still cared
Afraid to admit there were feelings I wish I had shared.

Crying like a child did I
Feeling your loss made we want to die.
I had turned my heart away
Something I did not believe I could do
Yet like a self fulfilling prophecy it came true.
For I had become the darker aspect of you.

Why did I turn away last year?
Would it have been different had I tried to overcome the anger I felt toward you?
Or would I still have cried an ocean of tears?

I never will know what could have been
Yet I miss you all the same
Like a fire your memory burns like an eternal flame.
And for a moment it looked as if darkness did win.

Yet I will over come this loss you see
For Taunia you still live inside of me.

Love you I always will
Perhaps there is no rhyme for this last line
Now I wish I could have held you one last time,
One last kiss to have given thee
Yet one day this may still come to be.

Written May 7th 2000 almost 5 moths to the day of the passing of my belove Taunia.
