This song was the result- through the years of my teaching experience- of losing several students to illness, suicide and accidents of one sort or another. My latest loss was a gifted student of unbelievable talent and compassion. I wrestled with the should/shouldn't aspect of the topic involved but the song came to me none the less...probably for my own catharsis. I also felt the need to share it to raise awareness of the tremendous pressures kids are under today.

So Much Left to Say By Terry Burdette 2007 You could have walked the halls of Harvard but you preferred a field of grass You studied Hendrix, Jesus, and Picasso by a stream while you were cutting class There was never enough hours in the day for you life had so much to give So you lived your life like there was no tomorrow While we were tryin to show you how to live Chorus: How can we say goodbye It feels like you just got here yesterday How can we say goodbye When your leaving us with so much left to say So many questions scream from the silence in your bedroom From the tears of those who watched you come undone Neil Young sang about the needle and the damage ...30 years ago Guess there's a little part of it in every generation Chorus x
