Beautiful
She was beautiful,
She had a beautiful heart and pretty soul.
Life with her was never dull,
There’s not a day that goes by
I don’t miss that gorgeous face
And her beautiful mind.

Reminiscing
Life was full of cheers.
Childhood memories so dear,
That won’t disappear.

Hurt
Tear after tear, veins coated with ice.
Heart of fire verses a heart of stone,
In this huge world I felt as tiny as lice.
Most of all, I felt alone.
It’s the middle of the summer,
Why does it feel so cold?
How can a girl be ten years young and lifeless?
And showing but to be so bold?
I was hurt and the hurt I felt was priceless.

My Angel
It took years, and I’ve tried my best
To lay my little angel’s soul to rest
No she won’t hear my wedding bells ring
Nor will she witness the next big thing
Anything I do I wont stop till my good is better & my better is best.
