I believe more...

I believe more in yesterday than in today.

You were so...

You were so lovable.

Well, it's over...

Well, it's over now. You walked away from me at the airport, and that was the last time I saw you. I had a bad feeling about that day. I feel empty now, as if I have vomited every last bit of my insides. I am skin and bones now. I hate eating. It reminds me too much of us - our nights out at our favourite restaurant, or just ordering pizzas and eating them on the bed together watching television. It would pain you to see me in this state. You would force me to eat, to get stronger, and to manage my life in your absence.

I have been...

I have been dreaming about you all week. Strange, since it has been over two years since you died. It is as if you have stepped into my life for a little visit, and I love it.

You used to...

You used to say that everything was fixable.

I wished you...

I wished you were dead for so long, and now it has actually happened. I only feel a little bit guilty because you treated me with such disrespect that I have few feelings left for you. You were a miserable human being who deserved everything you got. Now I can breathe.

You had a...

You had a good long life, so people say that it's almost acceptable that you passed away. But I didn't have the fortune to know you for long. Your death is not acceptable to me.

Thank you for...

Thank you for being my friend. Even now I love you still and more than ever. You are always with me.

Grief, unlike you...

Grief, unlike you, will never die. Only those who have lived through it understand this.

I would have...

I would have never had to date others because I wouldn't have felt lonely. I am sorry for this. I didn't know you were suffering so much inside. If I could do it all again, I would only be with you.

We mourn our...

We mourn our dead, even when we attend the funeral of someone we barely know, we bear witness to the grief of those around us, not as voyeurs but as people bound to a common fate.

I never knew...

I never knew you, but I saw you interviewed in a documentary shortly before you died serving our country overseas. I am writing to tell you that while I admire your patriotism, you should have never gone to war. As you look down upon you grieving family and friends from wherever you are, I hope you understand this now.

I can't believe...

I can't believe you're gone. I keep thinking that you will walk through the door and say, "Hi everybody!"

This just can't...

This just can't be happening. It can't be happening. I need you with me now. Please.

The shock of...

The shock of your death has left me unable to function properly. Words are sounds that do nothing to comfort me.

May you be...

May you be resting in peace my love.

Dear You, I...

Dear You,
I have had a hard time accepting that you are gone, and I am almost there. I am feeling good about moving on, although I know I will never forget you. It's hard to think that my memory of you will fade over time. I guess it's natural.

I don't miss...

I don't miss you that much. I don't miss your lies, your drama, your insecurity. Even your smile I don't miss. Your death, while a tragedy for some, is a relief to me.

I am sorry...

I am sorry you chose to end your life. My life is not the same without you. Perhaps you didn't think about this when you made the decision to leave this earth, but if you could see now how many people feel such a great loss, then you would understand that you never had to go away.

You never said...

You never said, "Good-bye," and because of this it's hard for me to move on.
