I really am going to miss him

Best wishes, cheers, hugs and kisses
spread throughout the room
as family and friends gather
to congratulate the bride and groom

he proudly stands next to her
with stars in his eyes
they looks so happy, so in love
it makes me want to cry

childhood memories surface
blurring my vision
as I watch them both
walking down the aisle

I can't help but feel
sadness overwhelm my soul
seems it was just yesterday
when we were ten years old

playing tag on the merry go round
nobody ever said we'd grow up so fast
but somehow, we wound away the years
making memories to last

you know, its funny
how life takes you by surprise
I never thought this day would come
when I'd have to say goodbye
