“The Note”
By Derek Felix AKA DFlex
I imagined all of the things
In a place where we talked
Into a different dimension
It was as if only we existed
I could hear a song playing in the car
When the radio wasn’t on
And I’d see your pretty face
Along with that pleasant smile
You did it for me when I was down
You brought me up back into existence
With your positive thoughts
The words hit home when they were needed
It helped save me from the darkness
Changing my direction into the light
You stood tall and shined bright
You were the spark that woke me up
The real fireworks on the fourth
That I showed you last month
Because you deserved to see it
To show you the person I am
We cared for one another
Even though we hardly knew each other
That was the friendship we built
It’s why you told me you were leaving
I was a day late when I realized it
So, I had to do something
That way, I could express my true feelings
And wish you the best of luck
I know you’ll kill it
Like the star that you are
Seize the day and go far
Fly like an eagle in the sky
That’s how I picture you so high
Thoughts of you could make me cry
Tears of happiness for what you did
Thank you for helping me get through
I’ll miss you around here
But know that you belong over there
Taking the next big step
A quantum leap into your life
I hope what I wrote
In the card I got for you
Gets to you so you’ll see
And understand what you mean to me
You deserve to know
You always were the coolest show
Maybe one day, I’ll see you
Until our paths meet again
