1 Corinthians 13:13<br /> <br /> <br /> And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Daisies grow around your smile-
As your picture steadily fades.
That fire in your eyes has gone cold-
Your blonde hair no longer flows,
But around your picture daisies grow.
Your frail hands-
No longer move-
No longer warm.
But I still remember the fight you put up
The love you had for us-
The flaws you had
Your voice when your were mad-
And your picture of Marilyn Monroe.

God saw you could not go on-
And we saw you in dead sleep dressed in blue.
Now daisies grow around your grave-
Daisies-
That makes me think of you.

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;
