i never thought this would happen, never ever in my life.
the day my best friend died, my dad . feb. 15 2009 .
THEN MY WORLD CAME CRASHING:
you were my everything my whole world,
and i was your baby girl.
you were super man to me ,
but that semi truch was like kryptonite.
every once in awhile i think its not true,
and i really do believe you arent gone.
so i sit by the door tonight at 9 a clock sharp,
waitiing for you to come home from work.
but im only to be dissapointed ,
for your not coming home tonight
so i’ll sit here alone ,
shed some simple tears.
cuz no body knows how much this hurts ,
to lose a best friend, and a dad all in one.
but things are changing ,
im getting better .
but no worries dad i’ll never forget you,
for you left the biggest footprints on my heart .
& for that i shall smile everday for you,
because i owe that to you .
you never missed a chance to make me smile .
i love you dad more then anything in this empty world.

30 YEARS OLD LEFT BEHIND THREE KIDS AND A LOVING WIFE.
written by Breanna Marie Bridegan
that was a great poem. i lost my dad, 3 years ago i cant believe its been that long. but your in my thoughts a prays. no one needs pain like that.
“If life has no grief, when do we know when we are happy?” –made that up myself
I was 12 when I lost my dad. Now I’m 17 and more deaths are accounted for. Words cannot express the pain I’ve went through. You get to the point where nothing matters. You just wanna leave be with them. I’m sorry for the deaths of your loved ones. I do share your hurt though.
I am sorry to hear about the deaths of your loved ones. I can understand what you are going through, i’m 16 and lost my friend this year in August, and also lost my dad in October. My thoughts are with you.
Breanna, thank you for sharing your poem. Sometimes it helps to let it all out. I lost my dad at age 9, he too was 30 years old and left behind 3 daughters. That was a long time ago. Now I am 48 and and grieving over the loss of my only child. She was killed in Oct. 2007 when she was hit by a car while crossing the street in front of our neighborhood. I was with her moments after the accident. As Mika said —- You get to the point where nothing matters. You just want to leave to be with them. My thoughts are with you.
Thank You for sharing, I recently lost a young woman who had honored me by calling me “her dad” even tho I was not her biological father. She had just come back into my life after being out of the area for a few years. My heart was broken on Thanksgiving day this year (2009). I still find myself getting choked up and feeling bad. I sure hope she knew that I loved her as a daughter and I miss her very much and will for a long time. May she have a safe journey………Michelle Greene-Cly 11/26/09
