Nothing's Changed
One more year has come and passed
Can't believe these 3 years have passed by so fast
But not much has changed from the year before
I still miss you just as much if not more
I've just come to terms with it all
Cuz in your memory I stand tall
People are always telling me
How much of you in me they see
And hearing that never gets old
From everything I've been told
I am nothing short of a little you
They see it in everything I say and do
And I could not be more proud
I smile as the sun comes from behind a cloud
Closing my eyes as the sun beats down
Thinking back to that last town
I drove 6 hours to get to
Where I got to see and spend time with you
Though part of me still wishes you were here
I managed to get over my fear
Realizing more and more that you’re in a better place
In my heart for you there will always be space
And with every year that passes by
I will let my words fly
A new poem there will always be
Cuz a part of you I carry with me
I'll say these things over and over again
Even though I let go of the anger and pain
Your memory I will forever keep
In my heart and mind so deep
Nothing and no one can make me forget
But in my heart I hold some regret
All these things I should've said to you
When I had the chance to
But there is never a single day
That I don't look to the skies and say
All things in my heart so true
Cuz I do still miss and love you!!
