Me and Ian got together on the 26th of August 2006. I was 17 and he was 18. We were so different. He was the shy reseved one, While I was the loud party girl.
We were always laughing and joking.We shared Christmas and New year together. We shared my 18th birthday together.Only a month before he died On the 16th of March we went to his college ball. And had a great nite. The next day we flew off to England for a weekend in Butlins together. We were so in love. He would do anything for me and i would do anything for him.
Then on the Saturday night the 14th we went to Ians friends party. And i had to get collected at 1.30. we had an arguement and he jsut walked off. I went home and i was textin his friends to see if he was ok. They said he was fine.
Then at about half 2 ian started textin me and i rang him he told me that he was over on the cliff. I paniced because i was at home and couldnt do nothing.(we lived 10m miles apart) I offered to rush out and talk to him but he said it was too late. He said THE WATER LOOKS SO INVITING. i pleaded with him to move back and sit down and talk to me but he said no it was too late. And he hung up. I rang his friend and told him to rush over to him, Then i rang Ian back but his fone was engaged and i tried to ring his friend but his phone was off so i thought they were on the phone to each other. I kept ringing to ring him. the last time i dialled was at 4.20am and i stupidly must have dozed off because at 4.40am i got a call to say that he had JUMPED. I ran in and woke my parents and we rushed out to the Hospital and we waited and waited.
The doctor finally came in and told us that they brought him back 3 times. The doctor said his brain was squashed (what a word to use). And wen he told us Ian was dead. That was at 7am. All i remember is gettin up and running and then i collapsed and was screaming.
We then got to see him and his head was all bandages his eye was black and swoollen. But he still had his lovely summer tan. He was so handsome. I sat with his hand in mine my head on his chest and i cried for hours and hours. Everyone just left me there with him and his father was on his other side. He went cold in my arms. I left the hospital at 12.30pm and was in a daze for the next 2 months.
I will never ever forget you Ian you were my First Love xxxxxxxxxxxxx

he loves my angel Shaun like his own .xxxx

How will heaven be?
As far as I can see
It will have huge bells
And will be situated on clouds
It will have many golden wells
That will so often swell
Rain will be abundant
And the sun will shine all day long
Angels will play on the harp
The sweetest summer song
Music that will touch the heart
While those beneath will shed drops of sorrow
Little will they know what will happen on the morrow
But to them up above
As plain and clear it will be
As far as far as I can see
Yes there will be misty alleys
And lush green meadows
Fresh with the fragrant smell of spring
Winter will never be bitter
Summer never so hot
Autumn never so bare
And resources never so scarce
Food for all will be relished by all.
Grateful we’ll be as grateful can be
Mountains high and strong and brown
Surrounding that hidden land,
Beautiful and vast seas I see
There colour as blue as sapphire can be
And the white waves lashing upon the shore
Sitting on the flattened grey rocks
Who would not call it absolutely heavenly?
However it might actually be,
But can we still not see
There will lie behind this seen
A relieving feeling of bliss
For where not have we been
But is this not by all believed
That after one’s decease
This is the land of eternal peace
Where we all ultimately reach?

love you xxxx
Still cant help but wonder why you did it. If only you could have talked to me. Sometimes I get angry and want to blame you for whats happened to me. But I cant. Because deep down I kno you didnt mean to hurt me. But you were still here would i have got the points and gone to college. You would be working by now. Would we be living together?? would we be engaged ?? would we have a baby? My life is goin no where and fast. I have no qualifications. Im no where closer to my dream of travelling. I'll be too old to a young mother at this rate. no body wants to settle down with me. And i fear that I never will. You were my first love and i would give anyting to see you once more. im starting to forget you :-( xxxxxx
Please show me a sign Ian.. Anything xxxxx
Happy Angelversary xxx
Hey babe its been 3 years today. Still feels like yesterday.
Look after my son for me.
You were the most amazing boyfriend and i will always love you dearly xxxxxx
I dreamed last night of Heaven,
As I follwed you there,
I felt your presence, heard your heart,
I almost touched your hair.
I remember crying,
Just because I missed you so,
Though I was right behind you,
I didn't want you to go.
I begged for a reminder,
To help me see your face,
A thing to hold and touch,
But it left an empty place.
I looked for you in everything,
I asked for you by name,
I know that you were with me there,
I'll never be the same.
I dreamed last night of Heaven,
I ache for one more glimpse,
Of the love I felt while near you,
And the beautiful heart I miss.
No one knew the torment,
that you were going through;
We only kept on seeing
What we really wanted to.
We saw the outward smile,
but not your inner pain;
We never really dreamt,
That you would never smile again.
Forgive us if we failed to see,
What we could do to aid;
Or if we failed to comprehend,
How much you were afraid.
We pray your mental anguish,
Will now forever cease;
And that your deep anxieties,
Will be replaced by peace.
We know your pain invaded,
Every single thought you had;
It made you cry internally,
And deeply, deeply sad.
But we in turn remember,
The good times, not the bad;
We remember when you smiled at us,
And not when you were sad.
So when we think about your life,
We won't dwell upon its close;
We'll remember all the good times,
And forget about life's blows.
We'll remember all the happiness,
The joy and not the tears;
The assurance and the confidence,
And not irrational fears.
Our lives have all been better,
Because you have been there;
So now we leave your memory,
In God's all-loving care.

Happy Birthday In Heaven - by Winnie Lovett
"Happy Birthday Ian"
It's sure to be the best one yet,
Though you left us here behind.
Did you think that we'd forget?
Your cake this year, will surely be,
A beauty to behold.
With the icing made of Silver,
And the candles made of Gold.
Yes, your birthday in Heaven,
Will be such a grand affair.
And I know you'll look so lovely,
With a halo in your hair.
The Angels will come from everywhere,
To sing your birthday song.
And I know they'll be so happy,
That you've joined, God's Happy Throng.
No I can't send a card this year,
Or give a gift so fine.
So I'll just send a special prayer,
To that wonderful Friend of yours.
with love

Questions In My Head by Danielle Benyon-Payne
I look at the last picture of you and me,
A picture shows what we cannot always see.
Eyes that no longer shine, a smile that covers tears,
Only you knew your feelings,
Only you knew your fears.
I look back with hindsight,
Was there something I could have done?
I feel such enormous guilt,
And I know I’m not the only one.
Why couldn’t you share with us,
How down you really were?
Did you think we wouldn’t understand?
Think we wouldn’t care?
Did you really think life would be better for us this way?
Would life really have been unbearable for you if you had stayed?
I understand life was hard for you, in a way I’ve never known,
But we would have been there for you, you would never be alone.
When we were out that night, were you aware?
Did you know it was our last night together?
Is that why we were there?
I think back over every detail, what was said? What did we do?
Did I make it clear, in every way, that I loved being there with you?
I meant to tell you that weekend, what a lovely time I had,
But time ran away with me, and now I feel sad,
That I never made it back to yours,
To tell you what I meant to say,
And now my chance has been taken away.
So I’ll tell you now instead, I love you, I miss you.
My world stopped the moment you died.
I run through the motions,
But something has changed inside,
I love you, miss you, always.
Suicide - by Sharon Wheeler
If I could turn back the hands of time,
I would do it just for you.
Even if time stood still,
It’s something I would do.
Just one minute, just one second,
To say our last goodbyes.
I never got that chance at all,
That’s why these sore eyes cry.
Just to give you, one last hug,
And ask you to think again.
A problem shared, is a problem solved,
And can take away your pain.
If I could have helped you,
I would be the first in line,
I could have showed you so much love,
And say, things will turn out fine.
I wonder, would you have taken your life,
Or leaned on my shoulder to cry?
God, I wish, I could turn back the hands of time,
Instead of daily asking “Why?”
I know that you hit rock bottom,
But the way up was always there.
If “only” is a great big word,
Just like you knowing that we cared.
If ever we meet in heaven one day,
I will hold you real close to me,
And tell you that you broke many hearts,
The day that God set you free.
I love you more than ever,
And I just want to hold you tight,
For life was not as bad as it seems,
On that cold and windy night.
God Bless Ian and Gemma
