Poetic Obituaries: Luke [Carter-Schelp]'s version

of the poem described a small leprechaun figurine that he had. His mother [Val Carter] changed the words to describe her son.

"I once had a boy not an ordinary boy. A boy that was very special to me," she read. ". . . .The little guy was as bright as night skies."

from Business Gazette: Community remembers energy, enthusiasm of middle school student

Luke , I love you so much ... I wish I could at least see you one last time to tell you so many things that I`ve needed to tell you . :'[ I can`t believe you`re gone ... I wish you would come back . I know that`s not gonna happen for a long time but you were the best friend ever and so nice to me .. so funny and I can`t stand that you`re not here . God , if I had all the time in the world I would just talk to the sky about everything in hopes that you would hear it . Well , I guess I`ll do that somebody and maybe soon I`ll get to see you without dying .

Love , Dani - Luke+Dani=BFFEAE (remember that night?)♥

Are you out there, can you hear this,
Luke Patrick Carter-Schelp
We were out here listening all the time,
And though the static walls surround us
You were out there, and you found us
We were out here listening all the time.

life is really hard without you. i wish you`d visit my dreams so that i can talk to you and catch up a bit..i really hate missing all the times we used to have together and it kills me more every day that you`re not here with us. its actually only 10 more days until it will be a year for your "anniversary" im sure if you were here things would be a lot different but still really really fun. i really, like, cannot wait until i see you again but i wish you would come here. sometimes i even still think that you`re just in africa or something and i want to call you when you get home because you always used to make me feel better about my problems and i do have problems that i need to tell you about. sometimes i look at other best guy/girl friends and it makes me in such a sad mood that you`re not here in person to still be my best friend. i know that you will be forever in spirit but i wish you were here physically, too. i hope a lot that you`re having fun up in heaven or wherever you are and when its all of our times to go we`ll get to see you and all be friends again. rest in peace, luke. i miss you so much my heart is breaking.

Luke,
i don't know why it hurt me so much, but it did. maybe because i never got to know you too well, and that hurts me because i know that now i never will. but ill still always love and miss you.
you were always nice to everyone, and i bet your having a great time in heavn. It is almost a year and i dont know how much we can take. you cant come back, and it feels weird w/o you. i know ud want us to live life to the fullest, but its much harder than it seems. whyd u have to go? whyd u have to leave us, and the worst part is...
it was a huge shock for all of us. how were we supposed to know that we'd never see u again. never talk to u, or see u smile? we all miss u, but how do we move on. how does anyone move on from the fact that well never see u again till we die. itll be a year, and people say, "wow, we made it! we actually made it!" but were we not going to make it? i dont understand. ur so far away,and were still confused and hurt, and we want u back, but thats impossible. and moving on is much harder than it seems. but we never really move on do we? well never forget u, or not think about u. we just wish that we could see u again. and it feels as though this is just a horrible nightmare. We miss u luke, never forget that.

HERE'S A SONG I MADE UP ABOUT LUKE CARTER-SCHELP USING THE SONG START OF SOMETHING NEW!:

Luke Carter-Schelp
We really miss you much
That anything can happen
When you died last year
I always believed in
You, Luke Carter-Schelp
It was really sad
Wish you didn’t die at all
I know that that my life has changed
Never felt this way
Without Luke

We really miss you
Luke Carter-Schelp
It feels so bad
To be without you
And miss you so much
Please come back
Luke Carter-Schelp

Now Luke we really miss you
Kiss you a thousand times
And my heart is breaking without you
Please come back Luke
I know that that my life has changed
Never felt this way
Without Luke

We really miss you
Luke Carter-Schelp
It feels so bad
To be without you
And miss you so much
Please come back
Luke Carter-Schelp

Now Luke we wish you’d be here
haven’t seen you over a year
I didn't know you would die
But now it’s hard without you

Come back
Luke Carter-Schelp
It feels so bad
To be without you
And miss you so much
Please come back Luke

Come back
Luke Carter-Schelp
It feels so bad
To be without you
And miss you so much
Please come back
Luke Carter-Schelp
Luke Carter-Schelp

Without you, the ground thaws, the rain falls, the grass grows.
Without you, the seeds root, the flowers bloom, the children play.
The stars gleam, the poets dream, the eagles fly, without you.
The earth turns, the sun burns, but I die, without you.

Without you, the stars roar the breeze warms, the girl smiles, the cloud moves.
Without you, the tides change, the boys run, the oceans crash.
The crowds roar, the days soar, the babies cry, without you.
The moon glows, the river flows, but I die, without you.

He might have ben taken away from me, the smallest, nicest boy that you could ever meet.
sometimes i just cry because i know your gone, it kills me because noone has seen your real face in so long.

You were small, but strong, young, but great-minded.

goodbye for now, but not forever.

little angel you have brought a smile to my face, please look over us from your heavenly place, there will always be a place for you in my heart, a place where we will never be apart

hey Luke, we all love you and we all miss you!! even though you gone I'll never forget the good times in PE class and that you made people laugh and were always a smart kid.

A boy so kind, so free, so adventerous.
He took the world as if it were a breath of oxygen.
He lived like a King in all that he did.
He has a family so strong and so loving, one that will always remember him.
But no matter how often everyone might say: his smile.
It's true, it was as big as his heart and it warmed up the world. It drew eveyone in and that's what he did, he made everyone laugh, joke, and have a good time.
Luke was someone who we all wish was around, whether you knew him or not.
His death was a tragic event, that brought everyone together, and now he knows, all those, that care for him.
All those, that are his family.
We all love you!
May you rest in peace Luke!

Luke. I only met you a few times, but I have many friends who knew you very well and they all miss you and love you very much. You were so lucky to have so many people who cared about you and love you. You're still alive in their hearts.

Luke,
It is slowly approaching your 6 year of being gone. I cannot believe it has been that long. It feels like just yesterday that you were walking down the halls with me. I honestly have never missed someone as much as I have missed you. Just thinking back to that day, I wished there was something I could have done to prevent this tragic event from happening. You were the best friend, son, brother and to me best boyfriend anyone could ever have. There were so many things I had shared with you that I couldnt share with anyone else. I have never opened up so much to a guy like I had done with you. There is so much I regret about our relationship and there is much I wish I could make up for. I dont know what to do without you now. Just know that you will never be forgotten. I love you so much and you will always be my first love no matter how young we were.
