To My Uncle
The days go by and still I cry
And wonder why you had to die.
We saw your pain, we tried our best
To put your troubled mind to rest.
As the days went by, as summer turned to fall
We searched our souls, our minds, our hearts
To make sense of it all.
I realize that your heart was broken,
That too many feelings had gone unspoken.
I know that you are now at peace
I know you're free of pain
I also know when my life's through
We'll laugh together again.
