Today, last year, I was in jail, calling a friend to bond me out. While on that phone, I was informed that a close friend of mine had been in a wreck and passed the night before. I don't recall ever crying so hard without a care for who saw me. All I have is two pictures of her and I being weirdos and goofy as hell. It's all that I have left of her and I. On this day last year, I lost a friend that I loved, who loved me, who made my life so much better than it would've been without her. Ever since then, I tell every friend that I have, before we part ways that I love them, because I wish I would've told her so much more often and let her know what she truly meant to me. This for me, is her song and it's been playing in my mind all day. Now, I'm listening and trying to type this out through the tears. I don't why I'm posting this. I love you, Courtney Thomas. I wish you were here.

Take it slow, tell me all
How you've grown just for me
Could we all reminisce?
Better yet, here's a pen
Make a list
Fill it full of all the things I've missed
'Cause I can barely drive past the school
Without stopping to think of you
And how we used to act the fool
But worst of all I wish I called
At least a thousand times or more
Just to hear what I've been missing
If a picture is all that I have
I can picture the times that we won't get back
If I picture it now it don't seem so bad
Either way, I still wish you were here
Don't say everything's meant to be
'Cause you know it's not what I believe
Can't help but think that it should've been me
Either way, I still wish you were here
Thinking back on the days
Where we all used to say
I know anywhere's better than here
In the back of the class
Where we grew up too fast
Living life like there's nothing to fear
But the eyes on the road
Driving home all alone
Singing along to a song from three summers ago
The one that made you remember it
Now I'll always remember it
As the song that your life ended with
If a picture is all that I have
I can picture the times that we won't get back
If I picture it now it don't seem so bad
Either way, I still wish you were here
Don't say everything's meant to be
'Cause you know it's not what I believe
Can't help but think that it should've been me
Either way, I still wish you were here
And they say you're in a better place
But a better place is right here with me
Yeah they say you're in a better place
Too bad it's not what I believe
'Cause a picture is all that I have
To remind me that you're never coming back
If i picture it now it just makes me sad
And right now I just wish you were here
Don't say everything's meant to be
'Cause you know it's not what I believe
Can't help but think that it should've been me
In the end I just wish you were here
Yeah they say you're in a better place
Either way I still wish you were here
('Cause they say you're in a better place)
They say you're in a better place
In the end I just wish you were here

My cousin killed himself the night he called me to just hangout with him and i said no im to busy and hung up. That morning i woke up to my aunt screaming and my dad crying i couldnt believe he killed himself, this song makes me cry so much he was always there for me and i loved him like a brother and i regret not going to see him that night i regret doing so much i hated myself so long for not going to help him. I hope he forgives me and knows how much i love him and i wear him on my sleeve my tattoo is always there reminding to always be kind to people because that might be the last time you hear from them and i could save a life by being kind. I love you Esaid hector castillo you are always with me

Just a thought..
Ya know, most of the times I'd be looking for songs like this to be a depressing mess. But, Despite the rough roads and the people we've lost. It's songs like this that don't make you wanna play at your funeral. But to realize How important of a person you are to a lot of people in your life and not even know it. The ones we've helped. The ones we've saved. And how much of a difference you make in the world with you in it when you don't remember most days. And that doesn't only make you a good person. But a hero in a lot people's eyes. One that everyone will remember.
