Katie

So soft,

Your beautiful skin

Hair worn up in the back

I wasn't ready for this beauty

I wasn't ready for this heart attack



I didn't remember you so beautiful

Until I say your lovely face

Such happiness in expression

I am glad I brought a smile to your face



Give me friendship,

Or at least an answer

Tell me why you like me so?

I am not perfect, nor is anyone

But what makes me different?

This I want to know



I want to see you

At your best

At the time you pass the test

I want you to work hard,

Become a great person

Don't let life's dificulties get you down



We all lose a friend once or twice

We don't even know why, but things happen for a reason

People change, you never know what to do now

Just don't get down on yourself if you haven't a reason

You will someday find the answers to your questions

This life is meant to be figured out

Don't get stuck on the details, look at the whole picture

That is exactly where you will find me



Keep true to yourself

Be unlike no one else

Be the girl you were meant to be

Be beautiful, be careful

Be someone who is open just like me

Keep your options open

You never know when a shut door will lock you out



Keep an open mind

Don't ever be blind

And forever be the best that you can

This is my advice

Take it or leave it

I want you to be all that you can

I love you in such a way

Something so beautiful

Something I don't think you will understand
