In memory he lives on,
His presence never truly gone.
A hope for a brighter day.
His love to light the way.

He gave of himself to all,
And broke down each and every wall.
United the world with one song,
In hopes that we could all belong.

No one was alone but him,
In the media's every barb and whim.
So many thought ill of a good man,
I never realized I was such a fan.

In trying to erase the pain,
I have removed the infernal stain,
Of others' views so wrongly told,
Just looking at them makes me cold.

Let him rest in peace at last,
Without the scars of recent past.
Let his family live without remorse,
To follow their chosen course.

Who he really was is unknown to most,
But in this I give him a deserved toast.
For all you've dealt with and rose above,
To want to return nothing but your love.

I thank you here and now,
And make this written vow:
To cherish what time I have,
And walk a more loving and thoughtful path.

Inspired by one so far away,
That I had forgotten until this day.
You were there in song and heart,
Waiting to make another start.

Blessed be your journey once more,
And as one of many I adore,
May your wisdom guide me now,
So that I may forever keep this vow.
