I knew that this would happen one day

But I never expected it to be so soon

I remember it as if it were yesterday

I remember being confused by it all

It happened so quickly

It made no sense to me; I thought that I had just seen you that morning

But next thing I know, you were gone

I always felt as if I could have done something

That I just needed to ask for you to stay and you would have still been here

I am not mad that you had to leave, even if I thought that it was too soon

Now I think of you being the angel that watches over me

But I cannot help but wonder if I have made you proud

I cannot help but wonder what you would have said to me in my difficult times

I hope I have made you proud

Because if it was not for you I would have not been the person I am today

You have taught me so much, I wish there was a way I could repay

I wish there was a way that I could tell you all of this and be able to know your thoughts

But everything happens for a reason

I know that you are in a better place now

I know that you are no longer suffering

It is time for me to accept what has happened and embrace it

I know now that you are in your kingdom of heaven
