Dear Lola,
I have always admired your approach to life
The light in your heart has stopped me many times from taking the knife
The fire you had in your eyes made you look so alive
Each day your ever-smiling face encouraged me to never lose hope
So when you moved out, I wondered how I was going to cope
It was tough without you here but your words kept me going
Whenever I was down, your words kept echoing
And then I get back up and smile all day, even without me knowing
I always thought giving up was the only solution but I was wrong
So whenever I feel like giving up, I remember how you stood strong
But now, I hear you say it isn’t worth it anymore
You think all day and your ‘bp’ keeps rising up
Lola, remember you told me that when life gets you down if you can’t get up, at least crawl
You conquered every obstacle life brought your way
You just need to believe in yourself again
You can’t give up now, you have come this far
You don’t want to be a coward- Not now! Not ever!
From every challenge, you came out even stronger and better
You’ve been a channel of hope to me and many
You’ve won many battles, you never backed out of any
Awaken the greatness in you Lola, my superstar
I believe in you and I know you’ll come out of this even better
Keep holding your flag high- a symbol that you’ve made it far
You have what it takes
Lola, you are what it takes
With Love,
The girl you never gave up on.
