Special Memory

by Iwi Laurel

You will always be a special part of me
You will always be a special memory
I`ll always cherish wonderful moments you have given me
You are in my heart wherever I may be

All the times we shared will always be to me
Songs my heart will sing refreshing melodies
I`ll put together all of your laughter like a symphony
I`ll remember you wherever I may be

I`ll put together all of your laughter like a symphony
I`ll remember you wherever I may be

I`ll remember you wherever I may be
I`ll remember you wherever I may be

This week’s song is a tribute to a friend of mine who’s very dear to my heart. When I was in college, I was an active member of the De La Salle Outdoor Club and they strictly implemented the buddy-buddy system when we’re on a trip. My constant buddy was Robert because the officers were teasing us so they always paired us during trips. Robert was nice and he once told me that I was his partner in crime. He really took care of me when we’re on trips and even when we’re just in school, he was a real gentleman. I remember once, I was in school and I was waiting for my dad. He saw me sitting on a bench, he sat beside and accompanied me while waiting for my dad. We talked about birthdays and I found out he wanted a chocolate cake for his birthday. I promised I’d give him chocolate cake on his next birthday but sadly he passed away. They found him in his bedroom with a gunshot on his head. His family said it was murder but some say it looked like suicide. I was really sad, I haven’t known him that long but he was really nice and sweet to me. I still haven’t bought him a chocolate cake but I promise I will on one of his birthdays. Today’s his birthday. Happy birthday Robert! I miss you!
