All your life you flew alone
Embracing authenticity because it was in your DNA
From your authentic baked mac & cheese to your authentic designs fit for kings and queens
All the way down to the authentic love you shared with each and every one of us
A love that was true and real
The love you gave had its own swag dripping off of it
Even though you flew alone you infected everyone you knew with your joy and laughter
Blessing us with a love that seeped inside our bodies, making a home in our hearts and in our minds
A house is not a home when there’s no one there to hold you tight
You were always there as the foundation to our home and our family
Even though you flew alone you never left anyone out of sight
Always taking others under your wing, nurturing them back to flight
You showed them to trust themselves instead of sitting on a branch
Because once that branch breaks, they can take their broken wings and fly
You now are flying free
No more pain and suffering
Although you are resting peacefully beneath the ground and no longer with us physically
Your soul breaths life into our family each and every day
Spiritually your alive now more than ever
We speak and you listen
We cry and you comfort us
We ache with pain and you soothe us
We have weak moments and just the thought of you makes us laugh
Make no mistake about it
A chair is still a chair even when there is no one sitting there
