In Memory Of Christian

There are only a handful of people
You'll meet in life
That truly touch your heart
And make you glad you're alive
They've got a special presence
When they walk into a room
It's almost like they were sent there
To take away your gloom
They can make you happy when
Everything seems sad
So happy it almost makes you mad
They forget about their problems
And brighten up your day
And you don't realize it until
They've gone away
They teach us to enjoy every day
Live life to the fullest
Laugh, love, and play
Because there's no guarantee
You'll get another day
So if you have a chance to make someone smile
Don't pass up the opportunity to make them happy for a while
It may be their last chance and
You'll remember them and their smile.
