"Remember Him"

Remember him for all the good things, he had done for his time.

Allow him for once to be in the spotlight, and let his inner beauty shine.

Remember him for his ability, to talk to others with care.

And to let them know when they’re in trouble, he will always be there.

Remember him for all the good times we cherished everyday.

And not for all the bad, but for the good he used to say.

Remember him for his determination, to make it to where he wanted to be.

And his ability to put others before him, and give them a chance to see.

Remember him for his heart, that was open to the world.

And open to the love, that he received from his soul mate girl.

Remember him when the wind blows, and gently glides across your face.

That is him guiding you, to your destined place.

Remember him when it snows, and the world is turned to white.

That is him turning a world of darkness, into an endless shining light.

Remember him when the stars, shine in the brightest way.

That is him watching over you, and trying to say.

To remember him for all the good things, and when you need to find the path of right.

Because he will always be around somewhere, to shine the guiding light.

Either in the moon so round, or in your heart so pure.

He will be around somewhere,

For that I am sure.
