daisy.

brave and strong

I could be wrong, but a part of me
thinks that you knew this was coming.
You were so brave, so strong, to do
all you did to keep me from knowing.

We could have spent the rest
of your life laughing and crying.
But I respect this grim and
dark path of your own choosing.

The world feels so cold and empty,
ever since you went on your journey.
This is how you wanted it to end,
and I accept it wholeheartedly.

You will always have my utmost
admiration, my adoration.
You are my inspiration, my devotion
in spite of this painful situation.

If I could just have one wish,
I wouldn't waste it on a kiss.
To spend time with you gives
me joy, it is pure and raw bliss.

We never even said our
proper goodbyes you and I.
I'll say that I'm okay, I'm fine,
that I'm alright, but that's a lie.

I promise that I will celebrate
your life and not your death.
My heart is filled with strife,
covered in tears but it will reset.

For now I can't be happy
but I'll do try to smile.
In your shoes I wouldn't
even last a single mile.

My hopes and dreams I give to you.
My aspirations, you'll have it too.
My heart has gone forever blue,
My memories of us two.
