For My Uncle

Why did you have to go,
Pain was your biggest foe,
You took the darkest road,
Your soul you have sold,
I wish it was just a dream,
It's worse then it may seem,
The happiness you didn't maintain,
All this time feeling pain,
In a dozen you were a dime,
I wish I could see you one more time,
I miss you so much,
I feel crippled I need a crutch,
I just want to see your face,
Why did you fall you were such an ace,
Like a child I need your hand, 
Why did you go I don't understand,
Please come back to me,
I miss you so much I'm crying loudly,
One more time to see you on the base,
I'm so lost stuck on another planet in space.
