It's been days and weeks, months and years, when I found out you were gone. First it was surprise, until the feeling sunk in. I couldn't stop the tears when I was lying there thinking of you. You seemed so flawless, like an angel sent down from heaven. I prayed to God that this was a joke, but the words were spoken, and they couldn't be changed. Gone since the day you died, but you're with us.

You were fighting for your life. Trying to win. But you lost your darkest hour of even trying. Your incredible talent, your handsome smile, and your beautiful, beautiful heart were the things that matter most to those who loved you. You tried to save yourself, but you lost it. You had true courage. True courage is fighting, even though you will lose. And that's what you had. You had true courage.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

You were the mockingbird, innocent and singing. You went underneath a spell and lost control. You tried to fight, you tried to fight, but you lost your war with yourself. It just took one time, one time, to lose yourself in the moment. And when you didn't come home that weekend, it was the last weekend you ever had. The last breath you ever took. But you are celebrated to this day. You had true courage. True courage isn't being a coward, hating others and blaming the world for your problems. And that's what you had. You had true courage.

To this day I pray to heaven and the Lord that you are up there watching over your beloved. But you are no longer suffering; you are resting and living your second life in peace. You know no hell now, despite the mistakes you made, because you had true courage.

True courage is fighting, even though you will lose. True courage isn't being a coward, hating others and blaming the world for your problems. You had true courage. You were brave, you were strong; you were smart and had a lot to live for because you had true courage. You made 31 years of your life worth it. You had true courage.
