Louie
By Kiah
Louie, Louie, you were my friend.Your life wasn’t the way it should have been.My heart is calloused from things I’ve forgot.I just tried to love the moments I had caught.I’m was so numbed from seeing your dad & mom.We sat and discussed the days now gone.How you were only nine years old.How she never asked for a heart of gold.Motorcycles and asphalt, all those things I felt.The day they told me Louie’s light was squelched.We never were so bold.As we were in our youth of old.Telephones and teardrops, all those things I felt.We never said goodbye, but I doubt that would help.Louie, Louie I'm so goddamned bluey.I’d give anything for one more day to see.Carry our toy soldiers for us into the dawn..We will see you when we are gone.Sunny days spent at B.B. ClarkSnickering at the adults in the dark.You, me, Ben, Orion and Dion.We were all we had to lean on.Laughing at the monkeys down at Vilas.We had our whole lives before us. Some things just can’t be predicted.This was your life and someone had to live it. Written October 16th, 2001 © on Oct 16 2001 01:49 PM PST 0 • 1
