 JANET'S PLANET

Shocked


Dec 04, 2009 Pictures, Images and Photos
He just found out
that one of his best friends
died yesterday

What a shock
it was
to him

Now he's thinking
about the things
he should have said

He's sad
because his friend is gone
he'll never say those things

What a shock
he now thinks about his own life
he realizes that tomorrow is not promised
