Out of my way and tried my best
To know those that should be known

To have them see me as somebody
A person with value and pride

To set respect and humbling fear
Just to ensure that you are well

My heart goes out to you
As you go about your life

A friend set to minimal roles
But striving to indirectly guide you

Your joy is my joy
Your accomplishments fuel my days

It motivates me to live...
To the the full extent of a hopeful tomorrow

A tomorrow that needs to accept...
That has to live without you...

Filling a void that I created
By refusing to look for a substitute

Living months and years in the past
but failing to live even a single minute in the present

So with this realization
I wish you well

Selfishly, I wish you well
Hoping that it would make me well too
