Home
Its been 6 years now uncle Dave i miss ya....
I woke up, quarter past six
ready for a new day
got dressed and packed my shi*
left without a thing to say
i rode the bus from the corner store
bigger, and older then the rest
Knew i wouldnt get home till after Four
i was hoping for the best
I was hoping classes would soar
and end so quick
i wanted it to be four
but nine oclock was so thick
ZZZZZZZZZZZ..............
when two oclock rolled around
i was passed out in class
waitin for the sound
of school bells and kids to clash
I knew the main day was over
and freedom was beginning to start
Listen to Champange Super nova
I began to depart
I was stopped in the halls
by someone i knew really well
my stomach turned by her calls
and the look on her face almost made me fall
Tears rolled down her eyes
her hands were shaken
she was tryin to hold back the crys
like somethin very valuable was takein
She wouldnt tell me why she was so shaken
she wouldnt even talk
i asked her has someone been taken
she still wouldnt talk
She just sobbed
As we arived at my place
i felt like i was robbed
the look on my mom face
and hearin her crys
i couldnt help
the tears fallin from my eyes
and i could tell
someone in my family just died,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I guess around nine
two hours after i left
my uncle was found lyin
lungs with out a breath
he died that night
we didnt eve see it comin
it couldnt be right
that he died from somethin
he went 3 months without
tryin to stay clean
so many freinds he threw out
not cause they were mean
but because they were addicted
just like my uncle
no one could have predicted
time was up for my uncle
He was only twenty three
he had two kids
he was the closets to me
man the toys he would give
the times he would share
bringin me out for fun
like the time at the fair
rollercoasters under the sun
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was asked to right a poem
just for him
without even knowin
i picked up a pen
I wrote
As it says when life ends we will see the sight
of golden gates shinning bright in the distant light
As it says an angel will be there to held
to find our way through the skys and clouds to heavens front gate
See,
No one knew ur time would come so soon
but the memorie you left will help us get through
the rough roads and times were about to face
until me meet up again at the golden gates
