Beautiful and elegant
Soft and delicate
Loved by everyone
FAR and wide;
In a race of beauty you win by hella strides

Missed but never forgotten; I
Wish I could see you one more time to say
What’s popping; or maybe
What’s good
Look down over my shoulder so in
Times of doubt you make me stronger

Dark nights get colder; and
As I grow older
I mature into the man you!!
would have….wanted

As im vist the site
The site in which you lay
I cant help but cry
And I ask WHY….why must the Young DIE
