Tamra Poem by Tia BraveBull Bredeson

I woke up this morning realizing
Its been two months
To this very day
That I received news about your death
How you O.D on pills
I told you they would kill
You dont know how that made me feel
Realizing you were dead
Holding memories of you inside my head
How you acted when you were high
How we cried together when Derek died
Cuz he committed suicide
Then you did too
What am I supposed to do
Commit suicide myself
Why, Tamra did you do it?
You had some big plans
What happened?
I guess I won't know
Now I look up at the sky and realize
I need to get on with my life
So here's what I have to say
Good-bye Tamra
