The Chosen One
He once was among us
as loving as could be
always helpful to others
Never letting us see
See the pain behind the smile
of a once handsome man
A great father to his kids
always taking a stand
A hero he was
to me in that house
Always making me laugh
piggy back rides a must
Pulling out the tug
Muscle poses in the mirror
Joy and laughter
even though there was fear
He went through a lot
you all just can't imagine
and all though he had some downfalls
he had so much compassion
Its been a short while
and although i don't understand why
what happened that December night
will always make me cry
I lost my hero
my uncle and best friend
i miss him a lot
the memories will never end
And now all i have
is the pictures to show
of that familiar happy face
i used to know
The angels did decide
to take god his son
forever in the heavens
He was a chosen one
