Nick, Ms. Tan,
Though I never met with with Melody, she has always been in my mind. For a long long time, I was hoping a miracle for this beautiful girl…, now…, I would like to share with you the following:
And if I go
while you’re still here,
know that I live on,
viberating to a different measure,
behind a veil you cannot see through,
you will not see me,
so you must have faith,
I wait for the time when we can soar together again,
both aware of each other,
Until then, live your life to its fullest,
and when you think of me, just whisper my name in your heart,
I will be there, …
God Bless you and your family.
