The Sound Of Death
7 November, 2003
Author: KitKatrina

The sound of your breath,
The beat of your heart,
It’s close to death,
Yet so far apart,
You in my sight,
Deep in your thoughts,
Why must you fight?
The feelings you’ve got?
It’s taking over you,
Each day I can see,
Working it’s way through,
And back through me,
I slowly watch you die,
Yet sit here and stare,
Why can’t God try,
To make things fair?
I watch each day go,
As I watch each day come,
I still don’t know why,
I tried to run,
I remember that night,
You couldn’t breathe,
You looked full of fright,
So I didn’t leave,
The ambulance came,
Took you away,
I called out your name,
As I do to this day,
Death has already taken its toll,
It’s already played its game,
I was such a fool,
And myself is who I blame,
The sound of your breath,
The beat of your heart,
They’re both gone now,
So, new, I’ll start!

Trina, that touched me in a way I never would imagine...It's so full of sadness...It's a poem that I feel for, but it's like I can't describe how I feel about it because it's so overwhelming, and my heart goes out to you, to your family, and to me...j/k. You, dude you are my only friend. You are leaving to Hawaii and I'm going to miss you so much. I'm going to cry...I'm going to cry...In all of your poems it's like you've touched me in that same way and I really think about it and I talk to God and I tell him that I'm so blessed to have two parents and I don't take any day for granted. Because two of my best friends(Trina-Matt)have lost their fathers...And now to this day I still think about it, and how much it hurts them everyday to know what it feels like to lose a parent and God knows how badly they are hurting inside.And it hurts me so bad, sometimes I just break down and cry. This is for you Trina and I love you and I hope we always stay best friends forever. Thanks, Chanel

Even though I was with you when you wrote this to me, each time I read it I smile. I always thought that no one cared about my feelings and I am so blessed to have a friend like you. Even though you are my only friend, it doesn't matter because you equal 1,000 friends. People say if you have just one true friend your entire life that you are truly blessed. I guess that I am blessed because you are my true friend. We've been together thru good and bad and we are doing just fine now. I love you so much Sarah and I thank you for all the kind words you send me. Thank you for always understanding when no one else did. Thank you for caring when no one else did. In general, thank you for being there for me! I love you with all my heart. Love always, trina@k@gucci.
