I'm sorry to hear that mate.
My condolances.
It was nice what you did in the snow with his stuff. At least, he has passed on something to you.
RIP |

My respects to your friend... :(
Just remember that you have the empathy of everyone else around you... and be assured he is right there beside you appreciating those very thoughts of yours. |

When you walk through a storm,
Hold your head up high,
And don't be afraid of the dark.
At the end of a storm,
There's a golden sky,
And the sweet silver song of a lark.
Walk on through the wind, Walk on through the rain,
Though your dreams be tossed and blown...
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone.......
You'll never walk alone.
Walk on, walk on, with hope in your heart,
And you'll never walk alone.......
You'll never walk alone. |

Thanks again guys..
just to keep you updated, we had a HUGE party for him down at the park on friday night.. drummers, firespinners, singing laughing dancing, speaking, living.
I even rented a generator, called up my buddy DJ cassiel, and he brought down his turntables and mixer. I brought my home stereo and speakers and we pounded out the trance all night.. (very illegal, but the cops left us alone, I think they understood)
I'm sure will was watching and loving it. and his death does have some positive aspects, it brought us all closer together!
And I am teaching his sister to spin fire, I am happy about that, she is very much like him, and I am honored to have the chance to teach her the art her brother was so passionate about.
anyway, thanks for the support people, I need it right now.. |

I originally intended not to post in this thread because I felt that no matter what I said it wouldn't make a difference, and that it would be wrong because I have never experienced anything near what you are experiencing now.
However your piece of poetry really touched me, and it struck me that wherever your friend is now, he must be awfully proud of having a friend like you and reading those words that you wrote.
Condolances from me. Hope you will be back on your feet soon..
Peace |

I know exactly what you are feeling man. It is pretty close to the saddest thing a person will ever experiance, losing a great friend.
I have lost three of the best friends I ever had. I lost two of them to a retarded ass drunk driver (they were in the car together when that ass hole hit them) and the other one passed out on the train tracks because he drank too much and well you can imagine what happened to him. I now have all three of their initials as tattoos.
I figured what better way to remember them than leaving their mark on my body. That was all two years ago and I still think about them every day. Time is not the best healler. The best healer is to realize that it was their time to leave this earth and to never ever forget how important they were in the formation of the person that you are today. Peace, Love and Respect to you and your friend and all those who have ever lost a loved one.
Rest In Peace |

| Hey man, I'm really sorry for your loss. I have lost 2 family members (a grandma and a great grandma) so far. My Grandma and I were very close, she was around me more than my own mom was when i was little, til I was about 7 or 8. And I would visit her often as the years went on, and I would spend all summer at her house. She died 3 years ago of emphysema. It was one of the most difficult times of my life. I have never seen my mother, my whole family for that matter, so torn apart in sadness. But I know that my grandmother is watching over me, and just know that your friend is watching over you. I know the pain that you're feeling, and how hard it is to deal with losing somebody close to you. Just hang in there my friend. |

I really don't know what to say :(
I can only imagine losing a really close friend, which I have so many dear memories with...and even imagining that sort of situation is painful so I can't begin to fathom what you, and many in this thread, have gone through.
I'm really sorry about your loss (and everyone elses here); those poems that you're writing, they're amazing...letting go, accepting it and moving on from something like this must definately be hard, and doing whatever you can to help, like writing those poems, is great.
I'm having a beer right now, so cheers to Will :)
Hang in there man. |

I know exactly how you feel. I too, have had an unforunate amount of deaths to grieve. Five people in one year. One murdered. I still haven't gotten over it. Sometimes it hits me so hard that they are gone that I freak out, push everyone away, and cry more than I knew I possibly could.
The only way I can find control of myself is through writing, which it seems you do too. I looked back in my journal and found an entry or two:
"the sadness that has comsumed every inch of my soul is overwhelming. its still hard to get up in the morning. i have difficulty falling asleep and eating. to me the world is dark, there is no sunlight. the flowers are wilted. rain seems to pour down on my heart with every second that passes.
however, i will beat this battle. the fresh wound that was cut into my heart will heal. there will be a moment when i wake up and i dont have to remind myself to breathe."
"it seems as though life is just a series of repititions.
i give up and find myself in the same situation i was in before. the tides have drawn me back into their cycle.
i look to the sky for answers and find none. the ocean gives me no response. the wind pushes me to and fro, whispering but i can never understand."
If you can't talk anymore, just write. I hope all goes well in your life. Live as though there is no tomorrow. |
