Loss of a Friend Poem

A very dear friend of mine died at the age of 21 in a horrible car accident and was not sure that he went to heaven, so my friend one night had a dream in which he appeared in it and said that he was OK, and that inspired me to write this. R.I.P Elden Keith Cox J.R

I Will See You Again

I pray every night I could see you one last time
I look in the clouds as if for a sign
I go to sleep crying, I wish you were here
But there in my dreams you once will appear
That beautiful smile I see on your face
Assures my heart you'e in a better place
I knew you were special but not just to me
How so many people loved you was clear to see
The day you were taken, my heart was so broken
I knew there were words I should have not left unspoken
I miss you so much, but I know you understand
I can't wait for the day I get to hold your hand
As we walk down the road that is paved with gold
We will hear all the stories we were once told
And there we will see Him, so beautiful and strong
And we will know this is where we finally belong
So soon I will be there and I know you will wait
As you take my arm through the pearly gates
But till then I will keep my head high and know it will be OK
Until we can be together again one day

Thank you for putting to words what my grieving heart couldn't! I lost my best friend of five years in March 2017, Christopher Martin, age 31. He communicates with me through dreams and in spiritual ways. How do you process the debilitating grief and sadness that cripples me from losing my best friend? Thanks for your time and the words.

Wow... This moves me.. Because my best friend Tyler was killed in a car wreck. He was only 13 years old & he was just starting his life. He was the captain of the soccer team & he was just amazing at it! He wasn't like any other teenager, he never got drunk, he never got stoned, he never smoked & he always told me that he wanted his first time to be special. (When he loses his virginity.) He was completely different. I don't even remember even hearing him swear. It's so hard to find teenagers like him.

But what really breaks my heart is, he has a twin brother....
Rest in peace Tyler Scott Spurrell
