Brittney loved basketball, Friends and parties too... And when it came to painting That's all she wanted to do. She painted everything she saw Birds, flowers, the sky. Somedays she sat at her window, And painted everything that passed her by.

But lately she'd been feeling woozy, Her muscles ached a lot And her parents got kind of worried, So they took her to the doc.

The doctor took a couple of tests, To see if everything was ok. Then the nurse came out with a look of sadness And this is what she had to say;

"I'm sorry but you've got leukemia," "You've got about 3 months more."

Then Brittney got up and ran out of the room And slammed the office door.

She ran down the street screaming, And cried her eyes out dry. And stayed up all night wondering, what it's like to die.

Her parents held her tightly, And said, "We love you," "We'll make your last few months the greatest," "We'll do anything for you."

So Brittney and her parents moved to Florida To live by the sea. Because Brittney loved the ocean And when she dies, that's where she wanted to be.

She spent her days painting, And horseback riding in by the bay. But one day she met this guy, And his name was Jay.

They collected seashells together And talked about all kinds of things. And then one day while walking He handed her a ring.

It said that, "I love you," Which brought tears to Brittney's eyes. And when he put it on her finger She began to cry.

"I've got leukemia, and about a month more." Then Jay said, "No matter what, I love you," "And no matter what,
you are the one I adore."

So they spent everyday together, And swam in the Atlantic all day. But Brittney was getting weaker And it was hard for her stay awake.

So one day Brittney painted her picture And gave it to Jay She said, "I want you to remember me," "Even when I leave this place."

But one day while they were walking And searching for seashells in the sand Brittney collapsed and started to lose her breath And said to Jay, "Please hold my hand."

"I love you more then anyone," "You are my only true love," "But now my time is up," "And I'll watch over you from above,"

Then Brittney's body was lifeless As she lay in Jay's arms. And he sat there all day And kept her safe from harm.
