Chapter 15: Into the ground we go

________________________________________

I hold back so much and try to hide,

All my tears that I've denied,

I know for a fact that it's not fine,

But I'm so good at hiding,

So please let me hide

I have cried oceans,

I have ignored storms,

I have forgotten motion,

I have felt strong

Never have I felt better before,

Never have I felt alive,

To see your face is so much more,

You're the one that gives me life

And now that we've fallen,

And now that we've lost,

I can hear darkness calling,

All the limits crossed

We are not warriors we gave up so soon,

We lost the war and we brought our doom,

Nobody has blood on their hands,

Because the ones that do are inside the earth.

My casket holds me,

Yours holds you,

So I was wrong to say,

That we would be okay

Nothing is okay now,

Nothing is alright,

We are just gone that's it,

We have lost the fight

And I have done the wrong,

And so have you,

We're criminals to ourselves,

My blood on mine and yours on your hands

'Suicide is never an option; it never should be. The first person to ever commit suicide started a ghostly story, one that would live long. And today as we lower into the ground the bodies of two young souls that had so much to live for, so much to accomplish and so much to do, we must understand that suicide is never the right path. It never was and it never will be because it doesn't just take away one life and this day is an example of that. Two people were lost, two families, two lives and two worlds. This world has lost two people that were destined to be great. Two people that would have come out stronger than any of us through their problems are gone and it is all because of that ghostly story. Or maybe because of us too.

Today when you go home, I want you to check up on your kids, and kids; I want you check up on your parents. I want you to have family time and bond. Also, I want you to apologize to whoever you have hurt and start afresh. I want you to realize that you might be making a bigger mistake than you can think it is. You might lose a life quicker than you can say SORRY and under no circumstances do you want that. Because at the end of the day you will be guilty and even though it might not even be your fault you will feel guilty because it is natural. And that is what I want you all to think. Forget your pride and consider others. And learn to love.

That said, Lily Smith will be missed and needless to say; we have lost more light than we even had in the first place. Even though Lily's death comes across as natural and sudden, we know for sure now that, sadness can kill, literally.

We lost Sam a few months ago and now her best friend has gone to join her, though not by her choice of time ' Mrs. Smith wiped tears off her face and stepped down, all you could see were two couples, and a girl of about eleven years old. She was gripping her mother's hands tightly as she stared blankly at the casket in front of her. She had never imagined that so fast after he sister she would lose another person she had considered her sister. Wasn't Lily supposed to be her sister after Sam left? In her other hand she clutched a balck diary and when nobody could hear her, she said in almost a whisper 'One life can make an impact and it matters.'
