Almost the start of a new school year, new season, new routine for a lot of things..
This is dedicated to D and K; two of the kindest, hard working, generous, and loving people out there.

No matter where you decide to go,
Nothing will ever change the One Love we all shared as a family
You are my kin, though not by blood, but heart and soul
We are bonded by the challenges we faced when we all first started out,
Far back in the beginning when we saw each other as strangers
Yet we grew together as only family can do because of the vibe we felt when we danced
Teaching each other the lessons of movement, drive, passion, and fight
The road we've walked on was never gentle
But because of that, and all the trials we've faced,
Love came to be
And hope soon followed
For a brighter, longer, wiser day lies up ahead in the distance
It's not the end,
No, not by a long shot
You say "it's my time to go" but it's not
A goodbye is not permanent, no matter what the circumstance may be
From everything that we have endured, taught, and learned
It will never be a goodbye
We are all in far too deep from the faith we've found.
