A year
And not a days been
the same
In our hearts
You still remain
Purple shirts
And things that say
Your name
All in loving memory
Of a life that was
Taken away
Tears shed
So generously at your grave
Dear Daniel don’t forget
Well all see you
Someday

The author's comments:
This is a piece on a friend of many kids at Easley high school. Daniel was a great kid and worked hard at everything he did. August 30, 2012 Daniels life was separated from his body. He is now in heaven but the memory and impact he made on us will forever remain. I really would love for this article to get out and help the stop for domestic violence.
