Long Deathchange Poems

Even Though Youre Gone I Try To Follow In Your Footsteps

It’s been along time since your death but it seems like yesterday
I still mourn your loss and for your soul I pray
Nothing is the same I see life differently
Now that your gone I’ve changed to be the best I can be

To change how I live I’ve gone to the depths
Even though you’re gone I try to follow in your footsteps

My heart was black your love has turned it red
Where there was anger and hate now there’s happiness and joy instead
Forgiveness use to be the furthest thing from my mind
Now it’s easy I forget the past and I’m kind

To change how I live I’ve gone to the depths
Even though you’re gone I try to follow in your footsteps

Charity and generosity was not in my equation
Now I look for it in any situation
You were not perfect but you were as close as can be
I strive for it and want others to see

To change how I live I’ve gone to the depths
Even though you’re gone I try to follow in your footsteps

Maybe they’ll change for their own good health
Or find out the satisfaction of being true to oneself
All that you were is now a part of me to 
Following your example brings me closer to you
