Array ( [sid] => 127990 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Because Of You [time] => 2006-11-08 22:02:15 [hometext] => I wrote this about a friend of mine that was killed. I have wrote others too, but at the moment, this is my favorite... I LOVE AND MISS YOU DAKOTA! [bodytext] => I'm sitting here
Missing your calls
Just wasting time
Staring at the walls

You've gone away
And can never come back
Since you left
My world has turned grey and black

I wish my phone would ring
Just one last time
And that I'd hear your voice
On the other end of the line

You left too soon
Before you could see
Your true calling in the world
And everything you could be

I still remember the call
Just like it was yesterday
I couldn't believe it
There was no possible way

I still cry
To this day
Even though it will be two years ago
On the 31st of May

I don't want to believe it
I don't want it to be true
I just want to answer my phone
And it be you

Because of you
I've shed thousands of tears
Because of you
I have a lot more fears

I think about you
Everyday it seems
The last time I saw you
Was in my dreams

I know there's nothing
That I could've done
But because of you
I'll never hold another gun

I'll always miss you
You're forever in my heart
No matter how many
Worlds we are apart

Because Of You

And that I'd hear your voice

I wont tell you that time heals all the pain, it lessons it some. When someone that close to us dies a little of our heart goes with them.

Hold onto your precious memories and know you will unite again.

~Michelle~

beautiful flowing poem by the way.

I can't imagine what you've gone through. This is truly sad, and I really feel for you.
I really like this stanza:

I wish my phone would ring
Just one last time
And that I'd hear your voice
On the other end of the line

God bless
