You were a friend
Thirteen something years ago
Never kept in touch
like we should have

She was your best friend at 13
You were there to see Sam
Kasie too
How can they understand

Agape was packed
I guess you never knew
just how many friends you had
Everyone weeps for you now

You lived life too fast
She lost it
At the podiem
Memories and lost faith

River of tears
Tears her apart
A better place I am sure
Not Shands, maybe bills

How could he make that call
He was just but seven, maybe
When I first layed eyes on him
To let his mom go

A decision left up to adults
More seasoned in the art of mercy
Less tormented at his task
To become the one of misery to himself

What about Ethan and Dillon?
So young
Move on now
Mom is gone

I will miss her as she does
God why can't you explain
Why we are here
She would like to know

In all essence
I will visit you someday
As will all of us
Just know we miss you

P.S.  Dearest Traci, hear my song and sing along, you dont know what you are missing now, we love you.
