He once smiled
He once grew
He once laughed
And I did too.He once cried
From all the pain
He once showed strength
He pulled it together againHe once pushed
The cancer down
He once beat it
He wore the crownHe once feared
The thought of death
He once let out
A long strained breathHe once made
A sour face
He once told me
"This one takes the cake"He once said
Dont cry please
He once made
My life at easeBut now its over
The things he once did
And it kills me
He was just a kidHe once smiled
He once grew
He once laughed
And I did too...
