You're hard to miss,
As if,
Trying to resist the urge to say something silly
Tip toeing around at two in the morning just to see how fun it will be to see the sunrise peeking over the ocean
Gazing at the stars in the sky as if we'd never seen something so pretty,
Etched into my memory,

You live like your dying,
With a tendency to smile and a hunger to leave earth
If only for so long
I can see it in your eyes
Etched into my memory,

You are lovely
No matter what anyone says
It's a part of you no stupid guy can take away,
Don't give up hope,
It's the one thing that keeps me moving,
It's etched into my memory

You are hard to miss,
Easy to appreciate
And easy to befriend
You're smile is gleaming like the last drops of sunlight on the oceans horizon
Waiting to say goodbye and giving the stars a chance to say hello
Etched into my memory

Don't grow up too fast,
It's a hard thing to do to your soul
And just know that
I'll get the chance see you again some sunny day
So we can say
Hello
It's etched into my dreams
Dedicated to my friend Brenna
