Pacific breeze
Blowing gently on my face
Yet I feel so lost
I feel so alone
So out of place
You'll never be with me again
The thought
The misery of it all
I remember all the nights of
Popcorn and movies
And being scared
Under the living room sofa
I remember the games Of Truth-Or-Dare
And feelings of confidence
In each other
We could go anywhere
And
With each other
We would always be fine
Oh this warm Pacific breeze
Drying my tears
Blowing my hair
In halos around my face
And I think of you
Smiling, laughing
Before that horrible night
When you breathed your last breath
And cried your last tear
We knew you had the disease
But I never believed
For a moment
That cystic fibrosis would one day
Snatch away your weak grasp
On life
The misery of it
When you fought so hard
For one breath
Something that we take for granted
Something that we assume is only
A God-given right
A right to breathe and live
All those days you suffered
But in silence
All those times I saw you
Holding in a cry of despair
You fought so gallantly and bravely
All the way to the end
Pacific breeze
I inhale deeply
And cherish the salty sea smells
You loved so much
Pacific breeze
I turn for the long walk home
And I can almost hear you laughing
And riding the
Pacific Breeze
