All you wanted to do was to play that day
Unaware of the accident soon to take you away
Smiling and laughing, jumping so high
Trampoline collapsed, I screamed in horror, you didn't even cry
I will always remember you were my best friend
Now believing that in heaven I will one day see you again
Author notes
Michael, I am so sorry for your loss. Having lost many loved ones in my life, I have learned that if you keep the memories alive in your heart, then that person never truly dies. Cherish the times you spent together and trust that one day you will see Austin again.
