this poem touched me because i had a friend that past away a few years ago and i got into an argument with her because she had hung out with a girl i didnt like and that day she got into a car accident and well. u know tha rest but other than that this was a hella good poem!

i loved it! i have lost some one really close to me and reading the poem does really make a difference. I'm not much of a talker but reading this poem and thinking of what some people have to go through with loosing some one, it really does make you feel for each and every one.

I once fell in love with ny best friend. We shared everthing together just as you and your friend had. We knew of this love we and for one another but knew nothing could ever happen due to our situation. But out love 4 eachother burned so bad inside of us. we had plan to grow old together but he faded away and i never knew the real reson why but he killed himself and i was forced to say good-bye. so i know how you feel

i lost a boy as a friend because he found out that i liked him,and know he is dating a girl he barely knows and i known him for two years,and i try to explain to him why can't we just be friends but he ignores me i cry and and listen to love songs whenever i see and picture of him,and i cried when i read your poem because the memories me and Zachary had are to painful to remember,and even though we were never together he was maybe still is my first love.
