Dakota William

Dakota William, I can still hear your laugh

Echoing softly down this quiet path

You always gave so much, a heart of pure gold

The kind of loving spirit that never grows cold

You were the funny one, lifting the weight

Caring for others, never hesitating

You are my hero, my warrior, my son

You fought like a champion when the hard days begun

With a smile so bright, it could fill up the room

Chasing away every shadow and gloom

Dakota, my champion, I'm so proud of you

I close my eyes and I'm right back in time

Looking at the bluest eyes I'll ever find

I'll never forget the way that they shined

A mirror to a soul so gentle and kind

Even when the road got heavy and long

You kept your head up, you stayed so strong

You are my hero, my warrior, my son

You fought like a champion when the hard days begun

With a smile so bright, it could fill up the room

Chasing away every shadow and gloom

Dakota, my champion, I'm so proud of you

You stood your ground when the storm rolled in

You showed me what it means to truly win

Not by the outcome, but the courage you gave

My beautiful boy, so fearless and brave

'Cause you are my hero, my warrior, my son

You fought like a champion, my bravest one

With a smile so bright, it still fills up the room

And those blue eyes shining to guide me through

Dakota William, my champion, I'll always love you
