Gone, to the places I wish I could be.
Gone, is the person I wanted to be.
Gone, are the times that I cherish.
Gone, are the feelings I used to believe.
Gone, are the people I once loved.
Gone are the good morning coffee and hugs.
Gone, are the days that I wish I could live in forever.
Gone, are the dreams I so long to remember.
Gone, are the smiles that used to grace me,
Gone, are the people who used to hate me.
Gone, are the people that I won't ever forget.
Gone, are the places I will never regret.
Gone, are the times when things were easy.
Gone, is the mentality that I can only be useful to the ones that say they need me.
Gone, are the things that used to haunt me.
Gone, are the monsters that used to scare me.
Gone, are the moments in my head filled with regret.
Gone, to those whose lives I haven't even touched yet.
One day I'll be gone too.
If not for me I hope for every one of you, that your days be filled with laughter and joy,
that the impact I left on you are the places you go and the memories you choose to never forget.
One day I'll be gone, but help make my memory live forever on.
Those people, those times that are gone from my life,
those memories, those adventures, those talks late into the night,
those are things that I cherish most,
the things that help put me to sleep at night when I need it the most.
So when I'm gone, use them too,
for I need them just as much as I needed You.
