Take the time to realize
The precious people in our lives.
Show them often that you care
Make special moments to share.
Don't put off things you want to do
Make the plans then follow through.
Enjoy the time you have with friends
Forgive wrong doings and make amends.
Be adventurous with your dreams
Experience the moments in between.
Let the sensation of being alive
Keep your eyes opened wide.
Remember the best times & throw the rest away
This moment, this day could be our last day.
Don't hold on to things you want to share
Don't be afraid to show you care.
Dare to live, to love and be free
Because it could all be over suddenly.

Why couldn't it be different
Why did it have to end this way?
With so much was left unfinished
So many things to say.
How can life be so unkind
And allow such violence to be
How can people go around
Acting so savagely?
Where is the humanity of human kind
What happened to the ones who cared
Gone are the days of brotherly love
When respect for eachother was shared.
Spinning so totally out of control
Look how far down this goes.
Apathy for the infliction of pain
Won't be responsible for the life you slain.
You do what it takes to stay alive
You go on living but he still died.
At your hand without just cause
As you manipulate the laws
To keep yourself from going to jail
You know the lies you need to tell.
It doesn't matter to you the life you destroyed
It's the punishment you want to avoid
You want to put all this behind you
But let me be the one to remind you.
He was only 25
When you took his life
Not another breathe will he breathe
Nor his loved ones will ever see
His life had barely begun
Never...

He came to me in a dream
And held me very close
I wondered if this could be real
Or was he just a ghost.
A sea of radiant blue
Gazed back into my eyes
Gone was the pain and anguish in them
He always tried to hide.
And still he held me very tight
His face I touched with my hand
And how he felt so real to me
Is hard to comprehend.
My mind told me it was a dream
But as he held me in his arms
My heart knew it was real
His soul gave me comfort & warmth.

Aaron and I were close friends for a long time. We had a special and unique relationship. Sometimes he really pissed me off and I am sure I did the same. He had a lot of strong opinions about politics & family. He was a great drummer. We enjoyed alot of music together, he turned me on to Agalloch. He loved to beat me at chess. He was definately a better chess player than me, he had the gift of strategy. I didn't. He was there for me when I really needed a friend, when I was in crisis....like when I lost everything to a house fire. We always found a way to help eachother and overcome whatever differences we had. Everyday is hard. Today a guy walked into my job wearing his cologne and I broke into tears. Everyday memories and thoughts of Aaron play in my mind. This is so senseless and wrong for him to have to die the way he did, to be brutally murdered by a low life degenerate. I miss you Aaron.
