    About this ebook

    This book is about the pain I feel about losing people I love. Its about saying good-bye and letting go. Ive always had trouble letting go of people that I love. Saying good-bye hurts so much. And I was very angry. Im still angry. This book is my way of saying good-bye and starting to let go of the pain. I just want other people out there to know that I know how they feel or to give them words for their feelings.

    Andrea Powell

    My name is Andrea Powell. I grew up in Gordon, Georgia. I have four brothers and three sisters. I never believed that I could write a book at all. When I was in the eighth grade, I was told that I had a learning disability, but my mother always told me to believe in myself. My mother, Estella Basley Powell, passed away after a fight with breast cancer for only a year. My father, Rufus Lee Powell Jr., passed away in a car accident. Two of my brothers have also passed away. Andre DeWayne Powell passed away from AIDS. My other brother Rufus Lee Powell II was murdered. My writing was the only way I could deal with the pain.

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      Yours is the first face I saw when I came into the world. At first, I was scared. It was so cold and bright. But then I heard your voice. I remembered it immediately — warm, deep and comforting. I didn’t expect you to be so big. My whole body fits in

      Dear Mum, There are still times when I go to call you. It seems inexplicable to me that you actually died. I used to wonder how it would feel, and after 16 years, I’m still not sure. The main thing I want to tell you is that I get it now. I understan
