Im wearing her favorite color
(green)
I can't believe it's been a year
Since she last took a breath
I can't believe
I thought I lived in a world
With Adrienne for three months
Then realizing she was dead
She had cancer, you see.
Her hair falling out,
Couldn't eat chocolate.
A two time state wrestling champion
Who couldn't help but stretch
The truth,
But I still couldn't help loving her like a sister.
She wasn't weak
Or sickly
Her crazy hair and showing ribs
Was just... Adrienne.
Nobody recognized
What she had was killing her,
Because she didn't seem to be dying.
I didn't see it coming.
I subconsciously had confidence
That her attitude
And love for life
Would pull her through
With barely a scratch.
Now I'm here with pictures of her
And notes on my camp pamphlet
From her
And she is gone and gone and gone
An I want her back.
