Rest In Peace Morgan

In memory of Morgan.

*********************************************

Do you see the tears we cry,
As we try to find a way to say goodbye?
No matter how hard we try,
We can’t get past wondering “why?”.

Why did you take your life and leave us behind?
Did you think no one cared? Were you really that blind?
Did you think we wouldn’t miss you when you left us behind?
I wish I could know what was going through your mind.

Even more than that I wish I could hit rewind.
I’d go back and try, to help you find
A reason to stay; to find a way to keep you from dying
Because we miss you Morgan, you were truly one of a kind.

“Stephanie, Morgan killed himself, he’s gone,” one of my friends said
When I heard those words so many things went through my head.
Shock, disbelief, sorrow, tears, anger, anguish, and dread.
“It can’t be true!!!! This can’t be real! He was so young! He can’t be dead!”
“It’s not fair! He was such a good guy! He was so talented! He had his whole life ahead!
“Please there’s gotta be a way to bring him back!” I cried in my head.
I was angry at God, at you. And I was mad at myself because I left so many things unsaid.

The last time we spoke was the day you stood me up, I’ll never forget that day.
I waited for 2 hours and I called you twice, both times you said you were on your way.
You finally showed up, with two of my least favorite people; I decided not to stay.
I felt angry and so hurt that night as I left and I drove away.
I waited for weeks to hear from you, I just want to hear you say
That you were sorry. You never did call but I forgave you anyway.
I wanted to tell you that I wasn’t mad and I still wanted to be friends but I didn’t know what to say.
I thought I had plenty of time. That I’d tell you next time I saw you. But then you went away.

It’s so hard to move on with our lives when our hearts are aching but we have to try
Because we know that you wouldn’t want us to be upset or to cry.
If you were here you would cheer us up and make us laugh. You were such a funny guy.

It hurts so much knowing that I won’t see you again here on earth.
And I just want to say for what it is worth…

You were one of the funniest and nicest guys I have ever met.
I miss you and I will never forget you.
Rest In Peace Morgan.
