Write a letter or poem to or about a loved one who passed away and share how they inspire you 11 months, 3 weeks agoMy Sweet Shelley,
Emily MayerThey played this video of you at your memorial
Where you’re just a little girl running in a field talking about butterflies
I think it’s your birthday
And it is not lost on me all the innocence absent from those later years
My dear friend you’re nothing but an urn now.I think about the fact that we all had daughters.
And I wish more than ever our girls could all meet.
And we would tell them about us as little girls.
Running in fields
Talking about butterflies
On our birthdays.—
I love you, I miss you, madly.Voting is closed

Emily, this is a beautiful tribute to your friend Shelley. Losing a childhood friend is life-changing in many ways. Not only does it make death seem so much closer, but it also rips away any lingering ideas we might have about being invincible ourselves. Thank you for sharing your experience.
