To my squishy faced friend

You are so young

The world is ahead of you

And for reasons only God knows

We have had a short connection

But in that time my heart has been tied

I can hear your thoughts

I can read your heart

And now I can imagine your future

Someday you will sink into these talents

You will grow into the incredible shoes you are slowly filling

And you will be great

And from that place, looking from the future back to the present

From those eyes I tell you

You are amazing

You are fantastic

You are so special

I can't wait for you to catch up to yourself

And look back and hear my words

And see for yourself what I can see

But until then please accept my sincerest compliments

Hide them away

Embrace them

And run, run with what you have

Let the abandon outweigh the fears and insecurities

Dive in and teach

Hold tightly and fly

Let go and grow

You are so young

But one day you won't be

And then you will see

What I see:

You are amazing

You are fantastic

You are so special

And you will be great
