A Poem by Lexi

"You need to come now"
That's all that was said
This can't be real
My own best friend, my soulmate, my world
Dead
Could it be? Could it really be?
Heartbreak, disbelief, fear
Why? Why God?
Why him? Why not me?
I'm the sick one, I'm the one that was suppose to die
Guilt
No goodbye, no I love you, nothing
Gone, just like that, gone
This is unreal
Pain
Everyday there is pain
It's overwhelming
I just can't do it anymore
I need to take the pain away
"Be strong for him Lex" is what they all say
But they've never lost their best friend
But I'm not, I'm weak
So very weak
Alcohol was the first cure
But that didn't last long
Weed, but still no relief
There was one last option
It was the only thing to ease the pain
The blade
The pain made it all okay again
Then the smile came
Well the fake smile
But it's okay, I wear that everyday
I've taken it too far
4 times I've tried, but I'm still here
Why God? Why won't you just take me?
It isn't suppose to be this way
But now I know
I'm stronger
Stronger than the pain
God has a plan for me
Even though I don't understand
But he has a plan
I can't change the past
But I'd go back to that day if I could
To save him
To tell him to stay home
To tell him to not get in that car
I'd go back to that day
Say I love you
But only if I could
Back to April 23rd
