Still Here
Before I depart this life
I want to make things right
You have been that
Inspiration in my life
A gift you are
True & pure
My vision was blurred by far
I didn’t want to feel the pain
But the acid came in the rain
Was trapped in my brain
Wounds and scars
Flames of sorrow
No one saw
My fears
Hidden tears over
The years
Lost a treasure of peers
Why I’m still here
