She was older now

She had a better understanding of things

Of him

She tried to forget about him

She tried to be selfish like he was, but it ended up hurting her more

So she decided to keep him in memory, let him live through her

She was nearing her last year of school, much like he was

She promised to carry on and let him live through her

She is in love now

She fell for someone like he did

She promised to not let them go

Her brother may have been gone but he opened new doors for her with his short life

He opened a way for her to meet the person she knew she would be with for a long time

So she didn't forget her brother

She wanted to thank him for knocking down the walls that let her be with the girl of her dreams
