Heyy Jamess
miss u tillionss words cn describe my feelngss !!!xx
sheadingg Tearss every time i think off u !! u ment alot to mee
i feels so sorri for our hole familyy were all sufring this daii !!
If feels just lik Yesterday it happened
i dnt no what else to sayyy im that shocked and scared
Here is a poem i picked outt
There's things you liked,
That I didn't know.
Happiness, a far away notion,
Because you had to go.
Quarter past one, early hours,
He chose to take you away.
I broke down and cried,
With no words to say.
The next two days passed,
We had to say goodbye.
I whispered that I loved you,
As inside I screamed, why?
And as I walked out,
I stayed two steps behind.
I didn't want to leave you,
Isn't time so un-kind?
It hurts like god damn crazy,
Though it hasn't hit me yet.
With everyday that passes,
I promise that I don't forget.
The moments have been hard,
Sometimes I cry myself to sleep.
It's going to take a long time,
And I'm falling in too deep.
I can't focus on reality,
Keep pushing it away.
I feel like I'm dreaming,
All of the words I say.
But I know you're gone,
I can feel it in my heart.
I just don't want to breathe,
I don't want to fall apart
Love u jb we'll never end xx

I feel a warmth around me
like your presence is so near,
And i close my eyes to visualize
your face when you were here,
I endure the times we spent together
and they are locked inside my heart,
For as long as i have those memories
we will never be apart,
Even though we cannot speak no more
my voice is always there,
Because every night before i sleep
i have you in my prayer.
Uncle James..
I thought that you had left Us,
for the stars so far above.
And then I heard the angel say,
'They left you with their love.'
I thought that I would miss you so,
and never find my way.
And then I heard the angel say,
'They're with you every day.'
'The sun, the wind, the moon, the stars,
will forever be around,
reminding Us of the love you shared,
and the peace they've finally found.
7 long years
I find it hard to believe you were taken from us 7 years ago. You would have hit the landmark 30 two days ago-what a party that would have been eh!? Whoever said things get easier were most definately wrong. If anything each year another special occasion comes and goes reality hits that you should be here to share it. I miss you James XX
