Please refer to the song attached^

The small spotlights all swirled around creating a beautiful pattern before focusing on me.

I blinked for the sudden brightness but focused to see all the people turning around to see me. The mic resonated with a high pitched sound, silence following afterwards.

I peered my gaze on my locket that held the most precious moment of me with my parents. I love you Mom and Dad.

Gulping, I wrapped my hands around the mic as Miss Alyssa played the soft melody on the piano. Closing my eyes, I tried to imagine something different. Something other than William and my parents.

But I couldn't. They were my everything.

"I just have this to say, no matter what others say, high school has been one of the greatest times of my life. I had great friends and teachers who have supported me through out this year and I can't be more grateful."

By then, I had most of the people's attention as they all waited for me to continue.

"The song I'm gonna sing is for my favourite person, wh-who is not with me today," I choked on my own words before adding, "This is for you William,"

'There goes my heart beating
‘Cause you are the reason
I'm losing my sleep
Please come back now’

My voice cracked on the first few words but I saw Mikayla nodding her head. Letting out a shaky breath I continued,

'There goes my mind racing
And you are the reason
That I'm still breathing
I'm hopeless now

I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you

And fix what I've broken
Oh, 'cause I need you to see
That you are the reason'

The words may have been the lyrics of the song but those were the exact words I would want to say to William.

'There goes my hands shaking
And you are the reason
My heart keeps bleeding
I need you now,

If I could turn back the clock
I'd make sure the light defeated the dark
I'd spend every hour, of every day
Keeping you safe'

I couldn't stop the tears as they fell hopelessly while the people cheered me knowing nothing what I was going through. Not knowing how much I needed him.

'I'd climb every mountain
And swim every ocean
Just to be with you
And fix what I've broken

Oh, 'cause I need you to see
That you are the reason'

William was the reason for my existence, I gulped before singing out the high notes.

'I don't wanna fight no more
I don't wanna hide no more
I don't wanna to cry no more come back, I need you to hold me

A little closer now, just a little closer now
Come a little closer, I need you to hold me tonight'

Looking through my teary eyes, I saw some people crying, Britney looking at me with a different emotion.
