I sit in the car yet so silent as I drive up to the woods. it's feels like forever since I have been here. I exit the car and shove my hands into my pocket.

Suddenly it feels as if I can hear his laughter behind me. I turn around to see nothing there as I walk the paths.

I can still almost feel his hand in mine as I walk down the very trails I once came to everyday.

I find the log I used to sit on with him every week. I sit on it covering my eyes as I can remember him embracing me into a hug telling me everything is okay and that things get better.

I take my hands off my eyes and look around to see nothing but the fall trees. When I look up I see a empty blue sky and reminds me of him.

I close my eyes again feeling the tears fall out as I remember him and his gorgeous eyes that I could stare into forever, his laugh that could never fail to make me smile, the little things that would always count come rushing back to me.

I then feel like I hear his voice in the gust of wind say "funny it takes no time to fall back down, but funny it takes same time to get back up".

I get up off the log and just spin in a circle looking up at the trees and the sky remembering the days I would never forget thinking how could it be this hard.

I whisper "hey you there, your better off here" before I walk out further to the cliff and I see two people dancing around near the edge of the water laughing reminding me of us and the way we used to do that.

I again look up at the sky reminded that I could never forget him. I go and sit down on the log again covering my eyes but before I do I see my wrist. The bracelet on my wrist I quickly take off and grip so hard as more tears come out of my eyes. I can suddenly remember his touch as he put on the bracelet. these where the best memories I could never forget that always had me questioning why he left so early.

I wipe my tears and walk back to my car still over playing every memory I had at this place wishing that I could just hold onto him one more time as we ran through the woods.

I remember his words so clear as I can hear him in my head

"uncover your eyes ask yourself where's my reflection".

This is how I would always remember him as the one I would run off to the woods with the one that would be there for me no matter what he told me everyday that we would always be with each other but I guess that wasn't true.

I stand silently before I leave I look at the tree on my right that I had never looked at after he left. I admire the tree walking around it as there was something engraved in it.

I read it aloud

"hey you there, I'm better off here"

I instantly knew it was from him. It took me 1 year to find this as I just ball up crying sitting next to the tree. I try to get myself back together but before I leave I whisper into the air

"I know now your better off here Grayson Dolan"
