Dear Ted

Dear Ted,

I find myself scrolling through your pictures
Thinking about the good times we had, makes the pain even greater
We spent a couple hours together last night, and now you're gone 
I'm confused, I don't know how life is supposed to move on

Ted..
You are the greatest man
Always had a smile, even if you couldn't stand
You took care of yourself, but most importantly always took care of others
That is why every post about you I hear the repetition of those calling you thy brother
Yet now that your gone I find myself full of anger, but i know Ted wouldn't want that
I'm sad to the point of depression, but I know Ted wouldn't want that
I'm full of rage at the world, but I know Ted wouldn't want that
I just want to cry and breakdown, but I know Ted wouldn't want that
So I'm going to show strength , because Ted would want that
I'm going to persevere, because Ted would want that
Life is fragile, and I'm going to work harder in every aspect of life, because Ted would want that
Even though things will not be easy,
I'm going to smile through them all, to honor Ted
Because Ted would want that
