My Uncle

About four years ago my uncle passed away

I still remember how I felt to this day

You see my uncle was one of my best friends

Too bad his life had to come to an end

Such a heartbreaking thing to happen to such a caring guy

I was sad and angry for the way that he died

Murder was the reason for his death

It was hard to believe that he already had his last breath

When this all happened I was out of town

It was funny how fast my smile could turn into a frown

Ane how his eyes that once shined could open no more

And how he never again would walk through that door

I never again will see his smile that always made things better

And hear his jokes that could make the cloudiest days turn to sunny weather

He could cheer me up when I was down

But now behind my smile will always be a frown

I didn't want this to happen

Sometimes I feel bad for laughing

I feel bad because its something he no more can do

And all of this is sadly true

This man didn't deserve to die

I would do anything to just be able to say goodbye
