Heavens gain, Worlds Loss

You were the greatest man
I ever knew
you were selfless
and I never got to tell you

you were very religous
but I resented you
and when you preached god
I didnt pay attention to you

You cared so much about me
you cared so much about my mom
and now I cant believe
you're actually gone

All you did was help
you were always there
not a thought of yourself
all you did was care

A respectable man you were
your where you deserve to be
I'm absolutely sure
because you were nothing but pure

Im sorry for my ignorance
and I\'m thankful for your presence
every second of it
that I took for granted

I realise how lucky we were
to have someone like you
your love is legendary
and you were so true

you didnt have much money
but you were full of bliss
and you taught me
money doesnt buy happyness

if everyone were like you
it would be heavenly bliss
thank you for making me a better person
you will be forever missed
