Remember all the times.
All the times we had.
The times when you were so frustrated
because you couldn't win.
Yet you never yelled,
you never cursed.
The times when you would manage to put a smile on your face
when you wanted to cry.
The times when you would make me laugh
without even saying anything.
You didn't need to.
I remember them.
Remember all the people you helped.
No matter what,
you were always there.
Remember every day
when you were a better person
than any of us could strive to be.
Remember us.
All of the times we had together.
Your love for racing,
and your love for people,
no matter who they were.
Because of this,
we remember you,
and we always will.

Brooke yours is really good. Very emotional. I started to tear up a bit. The beginning of your poem really hooked me and you wrote about something that a lot of people can relate to. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI think your intention is clear here and it comes through. It feels like it would be powerful read to the group who knew this person.
