Eric

So much has happened in five years,

I've grown up like you wouldn't believe.

You'd be proud of who I've become, I know it.

I'm a leaguie through and through now,

I know that'd make you smile.

I'm somewhat of a role model,

I am a coach, and a team player.

Something you told me to always be.

You wouldn't like my haircut, you'd make fun of me.

I still haven't figured out your magic tricks,

Though I would beat you at snap. I know I would.

There's not one day that goes past though,

That you don't strike my mind.

Every teary-eyed memory makes me want you back.

You were something I always aspired to be,

Someone worth loving.

Five years today, and my heart still weeps.

I bare your middle name,

And I am glad that I do.
