So many feelings wash over me reading this shine of devoted love. I feel so much with this warmfelt poem as the tears slide from my eyes. Having lost my fiance and unborn child years ago I still feel the pangs of being alone and not being able to say good bye.

Randy

I could not have said it better, Thank You!

I thought that this poem was very well written and very touching. I lost the love of my life in a car wreck three weeks ago and this poem truly speaks the words that I have been feeling.

Kelli

Wow. that took me back two yrs ago when my husband was shot and killed. And i was mad at him cause he wouldnt come home,all he said was "I love you Kelli" and i never got to tell him good-bye. But i love you too Danny!

Rebecca

I really liked this poem because it related to me when i lost and really close family friend that i didnt see for a year. It really makes me think about saying good bye.

Toni

AWESOME ! YOU CAPTURED MY FEELINGS AFTER ALL THIS TIME . IT HAS BEEN ALMOST 9 MONTHS SINCE I LOST A VERY WONDERFUL AND PRECIOUS PERSON. I LOVED HIM DEEPLY AND WE WAS GOING THRU SOME TUFF TIMES AND HAD JUST SPLIT UP THE DAY HE DIED . A BOATING ACCIDENT . I DIDNT GO TO THE FUNERAL BECAUSE I WAS BEING HELD RESPONSIABLE FOR HIS TRAGIC DEATH. THEY ALL THINK IT WAS SUICIDE , SO I NEVER GOT TO SAY GOODBYE AND THIS POEM IS TRULEY HOW I FELT AND STILL FEEL! MARK YOU ARE IN MY HEART FOREVER !

Elizabeth

This poem touched me so much. Last week lost my first love. It was so sudden I never got a chance to tell him goodbye or how much I love him. We were walking down the halls in school together one day and the next day I'm at his funeral. I just can't help but wish I would have gotten one more chance to see his beautiful face. He will always be in my heart and will never be forgotten.

shannon

your poem made me remember my first true love. he died 15 years ago and i never got to say good-bye. his memory will always be in my thoughts and my heart.

Susan

Your poem really touched me, it expressed exactly what I was feeling. My best friend was tragically killed 2 months ago and I never got a chance to say goodbye to him. Its hard to think about my life without him in it. I love you Morgan, a piece of my heart will forever belong to you. We all miss you so much!

Heather

I loved this poem, it has let me release so much emotion. I lost my first love, to a car accident back in june and he was the only one who died. And this poem just let me release anger,saddness,etc. that i have been trying to hold in since his death. I loved jamie more than life itself, and he never knew because i was too afraid to tell him. and his mother found his journal a couple of months after his accident, and he had written that the only thing he wanted was for someone to truly love him, and i did, i was just too late to tell him. The sad thing is he was only 20 years-old. But you're words have touched me so much and finally helped me to say goodbye, so i love you jamie and i will never forget you as long as i live. R. I.

i lost my first true love and father of my daughter to a car accident 3 years ago and your poem is what i feel. you are a good writter.

Ashley

I lost a friend about a week ago,and it's so hard to believe she's gone. She was killed in a car accident and she got through over a bridge and into the river and she drowned. And this poem made me understand that she is in a better place than here on earth.

Brenda

This poem reached me and expressed everything that i have wanted to say for a long time. My boyfriend died a year ago tomorrow from drowning and the only regret i have from knowing him is that i never got to tell him how i truly feel about him and the time we had together. This poem made me cry. Thank you

Kathy

Barbi, your poem has touched me so much. It expresses everything that I feel about death, in a way that I could not put into words.

Angel

thanks for the poem, it ment so much to me. I am only 14 and I lost my dad due to a train accident. I left for school in the morning mad at him and I never said Good Bye and I love you for the last time. This poem brought me to tears but it helped. Thanks so much!

Kathey

I thought this poem was very beautiful.I lost my boyfriend of 12 years,2and half years ago.It was a hit and run.We still don't know who did it.But I never did get to say goodbye.

melissa

this also hit home for me. this is the perfect poem. i lost a boyfriend 5 years ago. i was with him and saw he helplessly fall off a cliff. i did not say good-bye to him and the only words he said to me that i replay in my head is dont worry baby ill be right back as he slowly let go of my hand. i wish if i could be so selfish to ask for just one is to have him back for just one day to tell him goodbye and to do everything we could being together. i miss him so much. in memory of Dainel. thanks for making such a great poem it helps.

wendall

My good friend Curtis died only 3 weeks ago and I still can't believe it. We did everything together and it hurts to think about everything we still were suppose to do. I didn't get to say good-bye because I was seeing him the next day. Then he died in a car accident. I will always miss him and pray for him. This poem just said it all, Thank you.

Katie
