It's hard to believe it's been a year
You're gone but I still feel that you're near
Sometimes I delusionally still think you might just appear
The water begins to build up and form a tear
But I don't want the sadness released into the atmosphere
Great is the only way you could be
All the good that you showed me
Opened my eyes so that I could see
The depth and vastness of life and love
I remember sitting in church
Like a bird on a branch of birch
The power and depth in your voice
Told me that life is a gift, that we have a choice
And it's better to chose to live a life of rejoice
It's sad but it's true
The world isn't the same without you
And that's something I'll never get used to
But you gave me the courage to pursue and pull through
You gave insights that led me to a new world view
You will stay with me forever, just like a tatoo
This is only a small part of the story
Of a great man who rests in his glory
