I can't believe it's been 4 years already without you...I know you will never see this, but I want everyone to know how amazing you were. This is going to be one of those poems without rhymes because I'm not going to bother with them.
Today marks the 4th year of your tragic incident...this makes the 4th year I've had to barely pull through without you. I miss you and I love you. I hope you're in a better place right now having a blast. And I hope you're watching over our old friends.
Everybody, I had a friend named William. He...tragically took his own life June 5th 2012. He was one of my first best friends and he was one of the best. I met him in the 3rd grade and we were so close. He was an amazing human being and he was always there for you when you needed him.
He helped me through so many things and gave such good advice to everyone that needed it. He was never mean to anybody, no matter what. He knew his place. He was also very very smart and good with words. He also let me cheat off of him a few times :p. We were just like brothers. We were the perfect duo.
He was also the most respectful person I had ever met. He was such a good person. When we would finish a conversation...we would never actually say "goodbye"...he would always say "I'll see you again." And I always replied "I know I will." And...the last time we ever spoke that's what we said...and that last time...he seemed so happy I said that...he never told me what was going on with him...like, ever..and his...time was so sudden, I couldn't comprehend it...I was in shock. He was just gone and I know I can't ever see him again. I wish I could go back in time to stop him.
Everyday since August 2015, I draw a semicolon on my wrist, because that's when I found the semicolon project. I wear it in memory of him. I would do anything just to see him again. Thank you for reading this. Whoever is reading this, I would really appreciate it if you sent me your condolences in the comment section below. You don't have to if you don't want to though.
Thank you everybody who is reading this for sticking through it. And Will...if you actually are reading this from the big place...I love you and I miss you very much. You were the best brother I've ever had. You lived such a great and full life. I will see you again.
Rest in peace, William. I love you.
