  Listening to this song reminds me of my dad. <br>He died late in the night 2 months from my 18th birthday. He never saw me graduate. And if i am ever to marry he will never walk me down the aisle. <br><br>He was the only one who believed in me. We had the same humor and enjoyed many of the same things. Everyone always said i was like a tiny female version of him. he always made people laugh and was a free spirit. I am too but i am much too shy to talk to people. <br><br><br>I miss him so much these days. No one in my family wants to talk about him so it is just me left alone trying to remember him and continue his legacy.

  Last night, while cradling my daughter to sleep, this song played. I couldn&apos;t help but cry because my fiance passed away this month and I remember him singing this song to her the day before he passed. Fourth of July is my daughter&apos;s birthday and her name is Dove. No wonder when he started singing this song to her, i fet a ring and connection to it.

  i was 6 when i was at hospital, at night i was crying because i was lonely and missing my mom, the girl next bed just a year older comforted me and told me stories. i had heart disease and she had cancer. we both had eachother and we would run through the hospital corridor and have fun. she told me stories where the princess fought for her princess......i got well so i had to go home, that morning she kissed (a peck or two), the next time my health worsened and i went back there, she already left......now i am 15 and i think a lot about her whenever i visit the hospital i visit her bed and always tell her that i am fighting even though she left the fight earlier.......&quot;The hospital asked, should the body be cast? Before i say goodbye, my star in the sky..&quot; it brings tears......i miss you wherever you are

  This song reminds me of my girlfriend, we were both hopeless depressed teenagers and she lost her battle. Taking her life at only 15 years old. I miss her everyday and when I was young I considered joining her. Now I&apos;m nearly 20 with a wonderful boyfriend and I&apos;m living a much happier life. My house recently burned down but me and my family are going to get through this. I wont let anything make me hurt myself like I did before. Recovery IS possible.

  &quot;Your skin isn&apos;t paper, don&apos;t cut it &nbsp;Your neck isn&apos;t a coat, don&apos;t hang it &nbsp;Your body isn&apos;t a book, don&apos;t judge it &nbsp;Your life isn&apos;t a movie, don&apos;t end it &nbsp;Your heart isn&apos;t a door, don&apos;t lock it &nbsp;Remember to always love yourself no matter what you come against&quot; (This is not my word, I&apos;m spreading it to the 1% and now its your turn)

  My grandpa died around two weeks ago now, and this song just reminds me of him in every way. I hope he&apos;s still smiling at his children and granchildren wherever he is now
