She loved basketball
Friends and parties too
And when it came to painting
That's all she wanted to do
She painted everything she saw
Birds, flowers, the sky
Some days she sat at her window
And painted everything that passed her by
But lately she'd been feeling woozy
Her muscles ached a lot
And her parents got kind of worried
So they took her to the doc

The doctor took a couple of tests
To see if everything was okay
Then the nurse came out with a look of
sadness And
this is what she had to
say;
"I'm sorry but you've got leukemia,"
"You've got about 3 months more."
Then She got up and ran out of the room
And slammed the office door

She ran down the street screaming
And cried her eyes out dry
And stayed up all night
Wondering what it's like to die
Her parents held her tightly
And said, "We love you,"
"We'll make your last few months the
greatest,"
"We'll do anything for
you."
So She and her parents moved to Florida
To live by the sea
Because She loved the ocean
And when she dies, that's where she wanted
to be
She spent her days painting
And horseback riding in by the bay
But one day she met this guy

They collected seashells together
And talked about all kinds of things
And then one day while walking
He handed her a ring
It said, "I love you,"
Which brought tears to Her eyes
And when he put it on her finger
She began to cry

"I've got leukemia, and about a month
more." He
said," No matter what, I
love you," "And no matter what, you are
the one I
adore."
So they spent everyday together
And swam in the Sea all day
But She was getting weaker
And it was hard for her stay awake

So one day She painted her picture
And gave it to Him
She said, "I want you to remember me,"
"Even when I leave this place."
But one day while they were walking
And searching for seashells in the sand
She collapsed and started to lose her
breath And
said to Him, "Please hold
my hand."
"I love you more than anyone,"
"You are my only true love,"
"But now my time is up,"
"And I'll watch over you from above,"

Then Her body was lifeless
As she lay in His arms
And he sat there all day
And kept her safe from harm

I hope this teaches you a lesson.
To tell someone you love them whenever you
can.
Because maybe they'll be gone tomorrow.
And you won't be there to hold their hand.
Because love is everything to everybody.
Without it, the world would be dead.
So always tell someone you love them.
A parent, a lover, a friend.
Tell this to everyone you know,
it makes a big difference even though
you don't think so...
Everyone deserves an "I love you."
Because there may be
No one for that person to say it back to.
If you don't, the same shall happen to you.
This is a true story.
