Life is a fire
Burning inside you
It's your determination
It's your strength
It's your soul
Enjoy it while your life is light
For it can go out in an instant

I wrote this about a girl who was a really good friend. she died on thursday, February 12th at the age of 9 almost 10. I knew her brother, he was in my grade. The girl was my sisters friend more than i was the girl's friend. I wrote this to make sure her life lives on in heaven with people knowing about her.

What simple words that remind people how fortunate they are and how to smile and enjoy everything and every beautiful day.

Well captured. Deep, insightful and insirational. I can relate and the young girls death is extremely unfortunate, but the learnings are = live everyday to the fullest.
