As I sat in study hall and Mr. Ewers came in <br />He sat on the edge of a table and looked around the room <br />Then he spoke, Kristy died last night <br />The room was silent for a minute and then girls broke into tears <br /> <br />I got up and ran from the room and down stairs to the girls bathroom <br />I slid down against the wall and started to cry <br />As I sat there crying I remember the last thing I said to you <br />I was not very nice to you at all and I began to blame myself <br /> <br />Someone knelt down and took my arm helping me up <br />I let her leas me upstairs and back to the study hall room <br />Everyone was crying and I sat back down and started to bawl again <br />Our bus driver came over and sat down to talk to me <br /> <br />Everyone in the school was affected when you died <br />You were loved so much <br />A lot of us gathered in the study hall room of the school and cried together <br />We hugged and cried <br />People could not believe you died so suddenly <br /> <br />It was as if some could not or did not want to believe you were gone <br />I went to English class but I could not stay for I kept crying <br />As we all gathered together we tried to think of ways to help your family <br />People wrote letters and poetry for you even if I could not do it <br /> <br />I now I have never had the chance to visit your grave <br />I was going to go to the funeral but I did not have a ride <br />I probably would have cried my eyes out and not been able to handle it <br />You were such a good person and we were friends at one time <br /> <br /> we grew apart <br /> <br />I still cannot bring myself to go and visit your grave <br />Only because it will bring back to many memories of that day <br />I miss you so much and will never forget you <br />One day I will visit your grave <br /> <br />In time when I can handle it better<br /><br />jessica roberts<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/kristy-2/
