I know you were the star of this story,

I was the extra in your scenes.

When the world turned to gray,

I knew it was because you went away.



You were the soccer player, I was your cheer leader,

You made me want to be a better player on life's field.



I hope that I told you, I can't remember if I did.

How much you meant the world to me,

I looked up to you even though you are younger then me.

Your light is a beacon to a quiet, lonely girl.

Your friendship made me stronger, enough to face the world.



You are the laughter in the wind, the sun in the rain.

You are the smile through to tears, the beauty in the pain.



Today I will grieve you, in the future I will see you.

Till that day arrives I'll keep you in my life.

Hold you in my heart and remember you in my dreams.

And pray for those you left to live on with their days.
