Im Sorry Brother

I´m sorry brother
I see you fighting
I see your battles
I see you trying
Even through your pain 
you are smiling

As time went on
His condition got worse
His body began to quake
His hand began to shake
His voice began to break

The news was hard for me to hear
Reality hit me hard
The end was so near

The thought of it was hard for me to grapple
I´m sorry to say brother
you have lost your battle

Close your eyes
You did your best
But it is time for you to rest
We are all happy that you tried 
But I´m sorry brother
Its time to say goodbye
