Look Around
We were walking close together,
And I knew you had something to say,
But we stopped to admire a winter's day,
And I looked around and you were gone,
I looked around and you were gone.
We planned on being friends forever.
But life we knew, it wouldn't wait.
I know I didn't mean to make you late,
But I looked around and you were gone.
When I looked around you were gone.
But life we knew, it wouldn't wait.
I know I didn't mean to make you late,
But I looked around and you were gone.
When I looked around you were gone.
Will you wait for me beside the door?
You know I'll always want to hear more
'Cause that's what friends are for.
So if you look around and I'm gone,
Look around again, I'm not far away.
We'll still be walking close together,
Friends now, friends forever,
You always know what I want to say.
For every night there is a dawn,
So if you look around and I'm gone,
Look around again, I'm not far away.
- For Edeyn from her friend, Joyce

I have no words to express my sorrow
big comforting hugs
Her death was a shock
I knew she had serious chronic health problems but to die so young.
I found her alternately funny, infuriating, thought provoking and always interesting. Got to work with her a little on the short lived Penpals serial here and she clearly was a person full of creative energy.
She will be missed.
As to some of the bastards in her family who made her life miserable. I hope they are respectful in her death. Though I doubt it.
Poor lady.

Erin, I am sure that Edeyn
is up in Heaven, crying after reading your poem. know that we grieve with you.
May Your Light Forever Shine
That is so beautiful Erin.
That is so beautiful Erin.
Upon my liar's chair
Full of broken thoughts
I cannot repair
Tears
I feel empty for the moment learning that Edeyn has passed away, we started out at each others throats and then I offered her a place to come to and stay. Our bickering stopped and we became BCTS friends. So I am saddened now but I know she is in a far better place then she was while she was with us.
