I heard the news today that you were gone
I sat up all night with tears in my eyes.
Never got the chance to say goodbye.
I felt like my whole world came crashing down.
You were the person I would have liked to been like
in my eyes you were not only my friend but you were
my hero someone that I looked up to so much and wanted to be
like and still want to be like.  I felt like when we talked
I didn't have to hide and I could just be me and no one else
and you accepted me for what I was.  You were there for me
when everyone else had abandoned me and would help me out
and give me advice.  I see how important it is to live life
to the fullest and take chances because you taught me that. 
I know I can't bring you back but I wish I could some days
just to have one more conversation with you just to tell you
how my day has been and see how your day has been.  You
helped out so many people and where there for anybody if
they needed someone.  You stayed strong through it all. 
Goodbye my friend I know you are in heaven smiling at us
all.  Heaven got a great person when you went their because
in my heart I know how great person you were here.  I miss
you so much my friend.
