Your Story

Sitting in a room full of everyone who ever loved you

Rum and diet coke overflowing every cup

God, you gave us all so much love

I'm in awe at all that pictures I see, all the memories

I look around the room still expecting to find you

I'm wearing that dress from the first night

Do you remember?

The Treehouse

I flirted with you for hours

It took you sooo long to notice

We both asked the hosts to sleep on the balcony

An August evening, we both thought it sounded heavenly

One kiss, our first kiss, how I smiled and you held me as we fell asleep

Never did I know you would mean so much to me

One house party, one moment

For the rest of my life, you'll be a part of it

It's still too hard to accept that you're gone

I want this nightmare to end

I just want to wake up

To your dreadful snoring, to your cigarette in the morning, to anything that says I get one more, one more, one more something

You made this, this beautiful gathering, this party

Everyone is here because you made a difference

That's all we can wish for in this life, isn't it?

You were a wonderful, giving, understanding, angelic, honest, beyond caring person

Even that sounds like an understatement

Willie Lovin

I miss you

I love you

In every one of them I see you

God. God damn it.

Here's to you
