Eternal Life

My life feels so empty Can't beleive you are gone, I asked God his reason why What have I done so wrong. There were other people To take to Heaven above, It didn't have to be you Your were still full of love. I know your not in pain You've gone to a better place, But you were only forty years old I want to see your smileing face. Just one mor chance To hold you near so tight, See you laugh and joking Assuring us your doing alright. We have shared good times Even had some rough ones to, But, we learned to compromise Seen our problem's through. Why did you give up Together we could have fought, With a possitive outlook A cure they might have sought. Now, I'm left with memories In my heart they will remain, I know time will ease my mind Heal the pain just the same. Although I'm deeply saddened My life nothing without you, I know your looking down on us Oh, my brother, goodbye I Love You. R.I.P feb. 1969-mar. 2009
