Jake why did you take your life?
You had so many wonderful things coming to you!
You would've had a wife, dog, and kids
Maybe even a music biz
I remember your brown hair and eyes
I wish I could've said one last good bye

He was my best friend before he committed suicide now he's dead. He's been dead for almost two years and I miss him so much.

Thank you so much! And I really miss my friend. Plus I had inspiration for a song and I shared a few of the lyrics. And I hope he has something good for him in the afterlife too

This is such a beautiful poem-- it's not only incredibly personal, but it flows like a song... I hope that there really is something better in the afterlife for Jake, whether it's heaven or just peace.

This really touched me and it was amazingly written. I had two friends who also comitted suicide but it's been about 6-7 years since their death and one of them was named Jake and omggg this just did it for me. Like this just, this is just exactly amazing.
