Was that you?

I keep seeing Nick everywhere I go although he has been gone for over thirteen years now.

I thought I saw you again today.
You smiled at me from so far away.

I could tell it was you by the way you stand.
Picking at the skin in the palm of your hand.

I see your skateboard is still by your side.
Always on the lookout for some new place to ride.

It has been just over thirteen years,
And I still can't believe that you're not here.

She was crying when she said that you had drowned.
I remember screaming and falling to the ground.

How long is this pain supposed to last?
And what can I do to change the past?

One day in Heaven we shall reunite.
That day will be beautiful, sunny and bright.

I miss you, I love you, I'm so sad and blue.
The reason I smile is because I know you loved me too!
