Why'd he have to go
Waking up I rolled over in my bed, to look at the calendar. March 17th, 2010. Is what it read. Today was a miserable day, because yesterday my boyfriend Eli Goldsworthy. Had died. Every time I think about him, I end up crying. Because I knew that I would never see him again. Oh how I wish he didn't die, I wish their was something that I could have done. Knowing Eli he wouldn't want me mourning over him, but I couldn't help it. He was the best boyfriend a girl could have, sure we had our misunderstandings and fights. But we always got through those things. Where was I ever going to find someone as good as him? Well I wasn't going to. I still remember getting the phone call from Eli's mom, telling me that he had died.
"Hello, is Clare there?" CeCe asked, on the other end of the phone.
"This is Clare speaking, what's going on," I ask with worry in my voice. Their was a little bit of hesitation on the other end, until she finally answered.
"Well Clare, Eli has d-died." I heard the stuttering and tears in her voice, as she told me. Tears started to form in my eyes,
"How did this happen?" My tears just wanted to spill out, but I held them in.
"Well he was driving home from school, and that was when he got into the accident. The hospital called and said that he had been in a terrible accident. But he didn't survive."
"I am sorry to hear about his death, thank you for calling and telling me. Well I'm going to go now, bye."
"Thank you and your welcome, bye Clare." I hung up the phone, and all my tears started to spill out. Why did this have to happen to him? To Eli? He was such a good person, sure he had his faults. Every one does, but underneath those faults. Was a good person. I was going to miss him so much.
Later that day I went to Eli's funeral, it was a sad time. Every one that knew him was crying, including me. After we buried him and said our final goodbyes, people started to leave. When every one was gone, I said my final goodbye to him.
"Eli you were a good person, and a good boyfriend. I just wish you didn't have to die, and that you were still here. With me. Someday I hope to be with you, wherever you are. You will be missed very much, I'm never going to forget you. Goodbye my love."
After I finish saying my final goodbye, I walk over and place a kiss on his headstone. Tears start to spill out of my eyes, as I turn around and start walking home.
