The beach would be great
if it did not shine so much --
from the blazing sun.

I'll never forget you
But I'm scared that they will
Those lives that you touched
Have lives to live still
I can't really blame them
You were my precious light
But those who just knew you
Out of mind out of sight
I know that I really
Shouldn't think this but still
I see that their lives
Have to move on and will
As your mom I'm aware
That I loved you the most
But as the days and years go by
To them you're a ghost
I know that this won't be
An intentional thing
But there's thousands of new memories that the passing time brings
But you'll always be here in my heart and my mind
And your precious light
Will shine for all time.
Written with all my love for Micah Daniel, my son, my bright light, my miracle....

When I first met you, I did not like you.
I hated that you were always on top of your work,
That you were always so focused all I could do was lurk.
I hated that you always tried to be the best,
Competing with me in disregard to my request.
I was jealous of you because you were so perfect.
You made everything seem so worth it.
I never saw you walk away with anything other than an A.
All work was done in the best possible way.
I found myself comparing myself to you.
I wanted to be perfect too.
I tried to change myself to resemble you.
It actually helped me get out of the blues.
Many would say that you should never change who you are,
But when I was with you,
I felt like a star.
I started to distance myself because depression got in the way.
You were my first real friend and I doubted you would stay.
I dug myself into a hole to get away from you,
With this sadness following me too.
I never looked back to see you following me.
I would soon realize that you were a precious treat.
You stayed with me for a very long time,
You stayed with me until I was ready to climb.
Until I met you,
all I knew was demons
But you soon convicted them of treason.
You demonstrated the definition of a bright light.
And I could never thank you enough for showing me what was right.
Continue to be you: such a beautiful rose.
Dispose of any thoughts that may oppose.
