I've known you since the day I moved here 
You always knew how to make me laugh 
We shared or hopes and dreams 
Dreamt up a whole future for ourselves 
We had so much life in us 
God knew that I had everything going for me 
But still said it was time to go with him 
Diagnosed with cancer at the age of 16 
You decided to take matter into your own hands 
We married at 17 and never fought even once 
Daddy was so proud to see me graduate 
Momma was so happy to hear we were pregnant 
Our life was almost perfect 
Had it not been I was slowly dying 
In the hospital for over 6 months 
You and baby came and stayed right by my side 
One night while you were sleeping 
I held our baby tight 
I felt the lord reach out to me 
and I whispered into my babys tiny ears 
"Finish life for me, mommy will be watching."
