It’s been six months since you said goodbye
It’s been six months since you died
That night when you took the pills
Because you no longer wanted to feel
Into the darkness you were swallowed whole
Trying to find peace
And quiet your soul
That night you died
The piece of me
Where depression lied
I felt my fate
And knew it was too late
For me to stay alive
I was already dead inside
They took my body away that night
And I was renewed from the ashes
Like a Phoenix in flight
Emerging from the darkness
Flying into the light
A new soul reborn and ready to fight
I shed old skin
And doubts that held me down
I’m embracing this new beginning
In which I’ve found
Reminiscences of you are what keeps me strong and alive
So I’ll only keep you as a memory in order to strive
So Rest in peace
To the being
That’s no longer inside of me
The one who threatened
the life of me
I will always love who you were in every way
Because you made me who I am today

I felt like giving up
I was hanging from a thread
I just wanted to quiet
The thoughts inside my head
I’ve been hanging on for so long
Everything I felt was so wrong
I closed my eyes and took a breath
Letting go of all that caused me stress
I had to release myself
To hold on to something else
In that moment, I found my strength
To face the darkness and go the length
I took a step forward, embracing the unknown
With every stride, my confidence had grown
Though the road was rocky and filled with strife
I knew deep inside, I was reclaiming my life
No longer defined by the shadows of the past
I emerged stronger, ready to make it last

In my perfect day
You’d still be here
We would be sipping coffee
By the pier
Watching the morning sunrise
Seeing the glimmer in your eyes

In my perfect day
We would read underneath palm trees
Taking in the ocean breeze
Snapping memories that will never leave

In my perfect day
Cancer wouldn’t exist
Taking you away
Would be completely dismissed

In my perfect day
We would watch the sunset by the water
You would never leave
I’d still have my father

In my perfect day
I would live inside a world
Where there would be no fear
And when the day is done
You would still be here
