For James

As I lay down my head to go to bed I hear the
voices and think of bad choices.
I hear the screaming, the begging, the pleas all
of these invading my dreams.
Knowing my name was the last one called out, I
turned away completely filled with doubt.
Doubting, yet wishing this nightmare would end.
Knowing I was loosing more than a friend.
I cant turn back time and I cant take my pain away.
I shouldnt have let my life go so astray.
Now Im sitting here thinking things through.
Wondering what I put your family through.
I've never lost a loved one this way and pray I dont.
But I know no one can guarantee me I wont.
The senseless way you passed away fills my nights
and haunts my days knowing that I played a part
in helping break youre familys heart.
It hurts me so bad and makes me so sad.
I wished Id known then what I know now.
I would have changed things some way, somehow.
But now theres nothing that I can do, except
tell the truth and bring justice to you.
I hope that you can forgive me some day.
I'm so sorry James.

I just had to say.
