In Loving Memory

In Loving Memory
By Kristen Maholland

He is a friend to remember, a friend we love so much. The memory runs through my mind of the last time we touched.   He lived a life of happiness, a life filled with love. And from one little mistake he looks down on us from up above.   He was always there to make you laugh when your day was going wrong. Where was he the day where we had to say "so long?"   Why did it hafta end this way in so much pain? Since he left this world, things have never been the same.   I can no longer look forward to tomorrows anymore, because I know that they will never be the way they were before.   Not seeing his face, not hearing his voice. I wish there could have been some choice.   Life can begin and end so fast. The memory of Edo will always last. I wish there was some way I could have said goodbye. The thought of him runs through my head as I look up in the sky.   Knowing he is looking down on us with a smile on his face, remembering the life he lived before he left this place.   If his life didn't end so quick he would have gotten far. Only if he had chosen not to get into that car.   So as I end this poem I want you to remember this:   Live your life to the fullest because it could end real fast. Base your life on the future, but keep memories of the past   We miss you Edo, RIP.
