Good Bye Patrick

So strong are these sounds, so fierce are its weights the waves of Life.
Mixed with happiness,grief,sorrow,births and deaths the ingredients of life

So silent,nervously confused and memories of painful loneliness 
your absence has caused me.
My body is weakened,my bones broken,my tear bloody and my 
heart beating endlessly,only one question sings on ma sorrowful heart why me?

Life was suppose to be hard, all smiles,all pain n laughter shared 
with u my brother but now seems all so sad.
The thought of your earlier presence and now your absence,our times 
at school,at church in town and right here everywhere
 to nowhere n how i feel now makes me really mad.

Teach me somebody,teach me anybody
Teach me the secret to how well i can play the music of life to 
bring back my own brother Patrick,how well i can play the flute of life's body.

I used all i got,hopes wishes tears,compassion and even prayers
 to dance to the music of life.
Hoping to bring back u my brother Patrick to life
But so light like the mistletoe,u make me strife.

My heart aches,not with the pains but with the thought of u 
not hearing me wen i call on u.
And because its not your voice i will hear again wen finally 
my call gets through to u.
