A tribute to Matt, our friend

There are so many questions and not enough answers as to why it was you.

And now were all left with questions, thoughts, and ideas to have to go through.

I analyze and scrutinize all the reasons why it has to be this way.

And there is not a single word or explanation that anyone can say.

Your life Matt was just beginning to thrive and to grow.

And the one remaining question is how would you have turned out, we will never know.

Your heart was so good, pure and kind,

That's the legacy you will leave with all of us behind.

Your warmth and sweetness will remain here with all of me.

And I will take your thoughts and carry them through my life as best as can be.

There is no reason why you left us so young.

Your untimely passing leaves us all stung.

Your smile made everyone you were around light up within themselves.

We all take a part of you into are futures and are journeys for ourselves.

You had this amazing energy that you brought when you entered into a room.

Your being and your soul just made everyone bloom.

Matt you were there with compliments and always up for some good ole flirtation.

Now so more then ever you have my utter and total admiration.

A smile comes to my face at the very thought of you.

The pictures, of you smiling brings all those great memories through.

It's not fair that yours is a story that now has its end.

But your life and spirit will continue to ascend.

You were always there with a smile or a wink whenever I needed one.

Now you're on a new journey, not sure how it will be, all we know is that has just begun.

Will you have any idea how you touched those around you?

You affected everyone to their very core through and through.

This was a difficult year for you and your strength was something to admire.

And now it's your time but know your life will be cherished and if anything you will inspire.

There are no words to justify what has occurred.

But as cliché as it will sound your wings have taken flight and you're free as a bird.

No more days will you have to spend worrying or stressed.

I will live my life with you in my thoughts and forever that makes me blessed.

I am proud to say you Matt were my friend.

I am so grateful and appreciative for the time we got to spend.

I have learned from you that kindness is the only way live your days.

And for that I will continue everyday to thank you with praise.

I will tell what's on my mind and fight for those I love.

And for that legacy you leave I hope its makes you proud of.

I am better off knowing your up there looking out.

Cause with that said I do not have a single doubt.

I will not say goodbye cause this is not the end.

I am just so happy I can call you Matt Bell my Friend.
