Rhyme and free verse about a relationship I once had
I want to see your face
And hear your voice again
I want to be with you
Like I was back then

I don’t know
If I can stay this strong
Not having you here
It just feels so wrong

Just to know that you’re still with me
Just to know that you’re still there
Because I never got to tell you
How much I really care

Sitting in the trees
The conversations we had
About the future, the past
And all that’s in between

As the days go by
And time flies away
I can’t help but think
That I’m me because of you

You’d be so proud
Of all that I’ve done
I’ve changed so much
But I’m still the boy you knew

We had big dreams
Of changing the world
Of helping people
And saving lives

I still want to do that
In memory of you
And to see the world
From the eyes of another

It gets so hard
Not knowing where to go
Or what to do
When the darkness comes

As the day grows closer
I long for you
For your kindness, compassion
And love towards others

I don’t know what to do
Other than to think and pray
For the will and the strength
You would want me to have

Thank you for your friendship
And thank you for your love
Thank you for caring
And always being there

Thank you…
