"He said", she said through tears, "'twas his favorite place"
Ennis felt the tears start to roll down his face.
"He said, he'd like his ashes there",
Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect.

It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfection

"He said, he'd like his ashes there",

She hung up the phone, leaving two bereft of peace and grace.

"Would you like to go up and see his room"
"Where Jack used to lay and stare at the moon."


Is that s closed enough ryme? If not I will change.
Thank you Heath and Jake for showing us Ennis and Jack,  teaching us how much they loved one another.

He just needed someplace, quiet, as he cried,

He just needed someplace, quiet, as he cried,
In that little room, where Jack had grown it became noon.

He saw the bed, he saw the toy,

He knew the man, now sees the boy.
