Loved and Lost

I can hear your laughter
While he listens at 
One of his friend's corny jokes
I can see his smile
While he gazes at his wife
With pure love 
A worldly man he was
While he gives advice to
His kids about the do's and don'ts
Suddenly, something snatches
His life away, leaving a trail
Of hurt and pain
