R.I.P. Bryar Sue Gaede. January 4th 1993-January 5th 2011 You are deeply missed.

"

Time flies by, aiming for nowhere

And when the wind brushes through my hair

A warm recognition fills the air

That is how i know youre there

I know people say i dont have a right

To care

I didnt know you personally but

Through the thoughts and the prayers

Of me and everyone else

You were real

I got a glimpse into their past

Before the regret they'd soon feel

For not treating each moment spent with you

Like it were their last

Bringing many together

Though it tears us apart

That what we have in common is whats left of you

In our hearts

Wishing that you were here from start

To our end

More than just a strangr to me

Youve become a close friend

I cant even write without the hole in my chest

Ripping wide open because, hunny

You were the best

And it hardly makes sense

For your name to hang on our tongues

In past tense

You were so young...

Ripe age of eighteen

And im sure that the grass is bright green

On the Other Side

And i step back and think

Of how hard we all cried

And for how long

You whisper in our dreams a beautiful song

Of times spent laughing, smiling, blessed by

Your voice

Now just memories that we have no choice

But to replay over and over each day

Despite the pain

Cuz if we dont, we fear theyll fade away

I wish i might, i wish i may

Meet you up in Heaven someday

We could meet and

We'd greet

And together be happy

Instead of sappy

Hug family and friends

Tie up loose ends

You ran out of time before they try to mend

Cuz trust me, theyre sorry

But im sure you already know

Listening to us bleed out confessions

In late night, teary eyed, phone conversations

From up above

Youre not quite gone

You thrive on our love

And i didnt have to but i felt i must

Couldnt leave you in my steeled heart to rust

Would never leave you on a shelf to

Gather and collect dust

I promised myself i wouldnt cry

But i hope this isnt our last g'bye

Despite what they say, i can only hope

That one day we'll hug and say

Hello

Our need to feel you again

Breathe you in

Is dire

I speak for everyone when i say

We love you

Bryar.
