A poem written by Andrew’s mom on December 8th
11 months 29 days worth of mornings I wake up still not believing you’re not here
That December night, I live over and over, not remembering the snow or even the cold
For the tears were the snowflakes and the cold that I felt was deep within
You were only 23 years old
When I feel my heart breaking in two
One side for your brother and one side for you
That’s when your spirit and energy show me, you’re everlasting and near
I love you forever Andrew, I will love you always my dear
So that’s why I promise as long as on this earth I belong
That I will do everything within my power to help you live on
Just as the stars are not visible in the light of the day
We still know they exist and we’ll see them again in some way
Andrew
Love always and forever,
Mom
