~Your Memory Will Live~

Just about my friend Arik who died…
I stand outside in the rain
So cold and alone
Remembering better days
Days when you weren't gone
I stare at the pictures on my wall
I wish you were still here
I find myself waiting for you to call
Losing you has always been my biggest fear
I call out your name in my dreams at night
I can see your death as if I was there
I wish I could go back and make it right
And tell you how much I care
I miss you more every day
I've tried so hard to join you
Twice the other day
It seems there is nothing I can do
So I will just give one promise
A promise not to forget
No matter how long we are apart
Your memory will live
