"What do you do when your best friend goes one day? Somebody takes their life away...
And of all the evil souls that do survive, how could this world take such a beautiful life?"
It was taken for granted that I'd see your face again, and your smile that lit everyone up. I remember that smile the best. It was one you were always passing on to other people just because you could.
It was your father's smile... but he doesn't wear it now. His eyes are hollow, as he is the ghost of the man he was when you were here.
A part of the world seems to have fallen away as you fell away from us. All of the peace, safety, and reassurance that life once had, has shattered.
Perhaps you have finally taught me to live life as if everyday was my last day. But the price to learn such a lesson is far too high.
Missing you feels unreal because of the wall that is your loss. It says that you are dead. Just that bluntly.
Whenever I see it I want to turn away, but now I am forced to face it and see it as truth. But how the hell do I get over it?
Not just me... how do I pull your father over it? Your mother and sister, who do their best to stay strong but dissolve into tears when someone hugs them. Your brother, who has known you all your life. Your friends who tried to save you... but watched you fade away.
Your life was a blessing in ours. We will always remember that and carry it with us.
Now I pray you rest in peace and that you will forever watch over your family and friends, and be in their dreams.
We love you.

even though it's coming from someone who's never experienced the loss of someone significant (or atleast not in that kind of way..), i wish i could write something so beautifully written. i hope you don't mind if i quote something from this.
i know this is one of those things that is much easier said than done, and this kind of situation is a bit different than others, but whatever happens, just remember that whatever doesn't kill you, only makes you stronger. i promise.
yeah, you can quote something from it. and thank you, it helps to know that.
