A man named Eichen
Andrew Eichen- 9/23/89-9/24/08
Words can't explain the thoughts in my head
The minutes and hours and days in my bed
Who knew this was how the good times would end
It was the saddest day ever, we all lost a friend
You wont ever know when the trouble will rise
You just go about your days and live out your lives
Here we are now wondering, what, where and how,
But the real question is what do we do now?
Although I didn't know him as well as some did
This hits close to home and the hurt still exists,
I saw him just two days before that tragic night
Thinking nothing other and that hed be alright
Well forever remember the days that were shared
With the boy that never judged, always showed that he cared
Andrew will live within us for all the years to come
His love, heart and humor cant ever be done
So from this we learn that this is not the end
Because no matter what you cant lose a friend
Andrew was my son and I loved him more than words can say! I miss him so much I feel like I will die. Thank you so much for this tribute.

I would like to translate this poem
This poem is beautiful but very sad. The words that really touched me is " The boy that never judged, always showed that he cared" somehow resonates with the loss of my brother too.
