Pool

Those nights playing pool In our kitchen on cool nights Joking as I used the cue And thinking how lucky I was To find someone like you Watching you Stare at me across the room, you found me too You're brother standing in the corner You're Dad, like family, Asking me to mute the music As we joked about life and work In the sad nursing home Not knowing your life would end soon I had a true friend in You Those days are gone But I miss talking to my Man And I hope you had a full life And had no regrets In the End
