I wish
I were the kind of person
Who could let everything
Roll of their back
I wish I could laugh
In the face of trouble
And take it on
With my head held high

I watched you crumble
You went through hell
And I could only sit by
But you didn't need help
You overcame yourself
Your body was destroying itself
And you fought back
Nothing could keep you
Down
Nothing could defeat your spirit
When you were at your worst
You became your strongest

I can't forget you
Not simply because
I loved you
But you inspired me
Changed me
Proved to me that
Nothing is impossible
