My Copper Sun

Sitting here not wanting to run from eyes that shine like a copper sun. All that you say and do seems right Your happiness- it shines so bright. You can feel it as do I. Just as an ocean’s waves, how we feel can only ebb and flow but it never really goes- completely away you soon must go. We have eternity yes I know. There doesn’t have to be any goodbyes you say but in the end I keep telling myself this is the way. The way for me to move on while we’re apart, for me to remember all the help you’ve been, as well as a wonderful friend. But still a goodbye won’t heal my heart. I know it’s silly but yes it’s true, I can’t imagine a day of my life without you there, Showing just how much you care. Never caring what I look like or wear Because to you I always looked beautiful. But not just on the outside, you saw my soul and knew how to make me whole and then persued your goal. That day in ninth grade is a day I’ll never forget. It changed my life and has given me, a chance to see how much I am loved by a kind and gracious God from up above. You changed my life and now don’t you see Why it’s so hard for me? Hard for me to let you go after all the time- Time that we spent together and that felt like it would go forever. You said I meant so much to you and you knew you just had to hand me that book. then all it took was one look for me to see all you believed was true! Which is why now I will let you go trusting, trusting that in time God will make everything fine. That somehow, someday You’ll be sent my way. And hopefully if and when he does, I will be worthy of someone as wonderful and kind as you. I don’t know what else to say but forever and always I love you. I truly do.
