"When You Lose Someone,Forever"

Nobody can feel,how terrible it feels when you lose someone,neither that person is special or not.

Death can change everything in your life.Just imagine that when you are talking to somebody then someone come up to you,,then said "He or she had passed away".At that time,,you don't know what you have to do..you'll be confused and feel pain in your heart like someone stab you on your back.Feel more confused more than ever you can imagine..Maybe in yourthoughts there will be so many questions,,like "WHY??" or "WHY TODAY??"...

If that day you lose someone that's very special in your life,,you'll feel like in hell,,more hurt than a breaking up thing,,more worse than got a really bad mark. However,,it gets more worse if you lose someone in front of you. All you can do just cry,,cry,,and cry..until you can calm again.

For those who cannot feel the feeling or be in place at such time (when death take someone)..Maybe,,if you want to make comfort your friend that who is in shock,,you can't say "i know how does it feel" You really,,really can't say that (cause,you really don't understand how does it feel).All you can say to comfort your friend,,just say ""Maybe,,it's the best for him to go know..." or " Let him go,,and go to the best place beside god.."
Because,,
"Somepeople live,,somepeople laugh,,somepeople love,,but "death..",we don't know,,when will it take us or others.."
Always pray and pray everytime cause you still have a chance,,because you don't know when is your time to go....
