You are far, yet so very near
A part of my soul you are forever, my dear

In my heart, in my dreams all the time
I see your face in places, where I normally don’t stare

Your sweet voice echoes through my ears
Like that of a nightingale when there is spring

Your eyes doth shine bright
Lit brighter than the stars that twinkle at night

Every strand of your hair is so shiny and soft
As my fingers run through it, my ecstasy knows no bounds

Each and every detail is vividly clear
You are imprinted on my mind, whether far or near

He wanted to live life to the utmost
He wanted it to be the best
He wanted to compete at the highest level
He wanted to pass every test
But life is not that easy
And life is simply not that fair
The burden of expectations keeps building
The lack of achievements leads to despair
Facing all these challenges gives the biggest lessons of all
Life is but a journey so get up after every fall
There will be hindrances,
there will be testing times
Not all will be the way you want it to go
Everything take its own time
There will be trials and delays
The results may take time to come
Some things may not be destined which you really want to do
Yet some successes may appear which you never thought would go through
Objective is to be grateful for every success and achievement even if it's small
Put expectations aside and show gratitude
Let not the stresses of life darken your days and frown lines cover your visage
Take it one day at a time, be happy, be alive and enjoy the ride
