Empty Chair

2008 should be a time of bliss
But someone who should be here does not exist
A person who could make anyone smile
Someone who was here, but for a short while
A person who should throw their cap in the air
That someone represents our empty chair
Her life cut short while coming to school
Trying to make it on time not breaking another rule
Yes, she should be sitting in that empty chair
But just in our memory -- how unfair
