You always flew your own way
Leading others as you found your path
Showing us all the face of courage
Defining dignity as you faced the beast
No matter the news you held your head high
Even when our hopes and dreams for you died
You showed us love as you prepared to fly
Leaving us behind as you soared to new heights
Everyday we feel the hole in our lives
Left there when you had to fly
We let you go, when we wanted to hold on
Knowing our journey together was at the end
We go through our days thinking of you
Looking for signs that you are near
Feathers on the ground say hi I’m okay
Bring smiles to our hearts and tears to our eyes
We walk through a world that will never be the same
Trying so hard to live with the pain
Our hearts are broken as we think of you
Wishing to see you and hold your hands
So many lives have been touched by your life
Lived to the fullest in too short a time
Showing the world all you could be
Leaving us to wonder what would have been
Four hearts in our house, know you are gone
Each one of us wishing this nightmare was done
We smile and laugh, but our hearts are still broken
Trying to live without what has been taken
You are flying above us looking down on our lives
Soaring in freedom, finally able to fly
Waiting to greet us when our time comes
Healing our hearts when we hold you again
