I have written my own poems about my own experience with my uncle I want to publish it but some people think its too depressing. Its not what I intended but I mean Its about my experience with his death how am I supposed to make that cheerful??

that poem took me about 15 mins to write about a year ago. i wrote it to put it on a bebo page i have set up in memory of my sister. all her old school friends have added this page so this way i know she wont ever be forgotten.

three members of my best friend’s family passed away just recently, and she’s been very upset. me and my friends haven’t exactly been able to relate because we’ve never lost so many people so close. something like this would make her, and many other people out there just like her, very happy to learn they’re not the only ones.

Most of the time you can smile when you think of a loved one and sometimes you just cry. It is the people left behind though that are sad, not the people who leave us, their agonies are over for them and they are at peace.

anyways now im just waffling on. lol.

She had Neurofibromatosis… i cant even explain what it is to be honest. all i know is it killed her. im fairly ok with it now. i used to be a right mess. i still have my bad days but im good most of the time.

Maybe you should print it out with a photo of your sister and frame it. I know that was a difficult time for you. I lost my little sister two years ago.

Well done though!
