In Honor of Christina Grimmie

Just a poem titled "Christina" I wrote in honor of the beautiful and talented late Christina Grimmie. As well as other things I might include to honor this abundance of joy. I saw her open for Selena Gomez twice, in 2011 and 2013. The first song I heard that wasn't live was the collaboration she did with Sam Tsui and Kurt Hugo Schneider, "Just A Dream," originally by Nelly. I miss her so so so so much. I remember that second time she opened for Selena Gomez, she sang a song she kept close to her, I can't remember what it was, but everyone used the flashlight on their smart phones and everyone was lighting the room like one would with a candle or something. Then when Selena was singing "Transfiguration" and "Nobody" at her Miami concert, dedicating these songs to Christina, everyone lit up the place with their smart phones again. I remember Christina saying after the song she sang (in 2013) about how she appreciated the "pretty little lights" we used with our phones. Please enjoy this poem and possibly others I might write in Christina's honor.

All poems are written by me.
