Missing someone gets easier every day because even though it's one day further from the last time you saw each other, it's one day closer to the next time you will.

There's this girl that I love, and you may know.
And she was different from all the rest.
I do wish that she didn't have to go,
But I knew that she was one of the best.

She was beautiful and one of a kind,
You could go to her about anything.
I can never get her out of my mind,
I could talk to her about everything.

She always put a big smile on my face.
Just thinking about her can make me smile.
She's one that no one could ever replace.
She always made everything worth the while.

I think everyone can agree with me,
That who I speak of is Lisa Marie <3

The author's comments:
On October 12, 2010 two teenagers went to a park and up a hill and killed themselves. They were my friends. Their names are Lisa & Jacob. Jacob was someone I could talk to about anything and make me laugh. Lisa was a beautiful, loving, amazing friend. I miss them dearly, and I love them greatly. In my English class last year we had to write sonnets, and we were allowed to pick the subject. I chose Lisa because she changed my life in both good and bad ways. Their death put me through pain and depression. It is still hard, but I'm trying to get through it by the help of friends and music.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
