Remember how it all seemed bright and
nothing could stop the shine
You didn't think that it all would end
in such quick time
The flowers were beautiful but it's a
shame that he didn't get to smell them
Hopefully everyone who loved him was
able to tell 'em.
It's been a hard ten months but you
don't seem so far
Because although you're in the ground
you are still seen in the stars
I can't deny that nothing has really
been the same
Since I've lost the chance to see you
and say your name
This year has sure been something. I
remember last Christmas getting the chance to spend it with my
family, and it was great (like always). At the end of the night I was
asked to drive my Grandma and Grandpa home. Little did I know that it
would be the last time I'd see my Grandfather before he passed in
February. I always wanted him to know how much I loved him, because
he helped teach me what it means to be a man. I wasn't expecting this
year to go the way it has. I have been extremely busy with just about
everything, but I realize that is part of growing up. There are a few
things I'm looking forward to in this coming year. I'm graduating
college, I'm beginning graduate school, and I'll be effectively
transitioning to a new chapter in my life. Amongst all that, there
are other things I'd like to do this year. I want to be able to fully
realize the blessings I have in my life, and to show my thanks to
those people. So I came up with a little bit of something that I can
look back on in a year, and hopefully I'll feel like I've fulfilled
them:
If you find someone who you feel is the
best at anything
Don't be afraid to ask for everything
Remember to just keep the faith
Because where this might take you may
not feel safe
But you gotta keep the faith
I'm gonna keep the faith
