He is forever 21
lost his battle, the laughing's done
settled thoughts, this cancer has won
one less brother, one less son
the time to reconcile has passed with the day
that we dug a hole for his body to lay
in my dreams, his memory has chosen to stay
and will be my companion until my final day
photographs are scars left behind
of lost times that we'll never find
new years come, new years pass on
but he'll forever be 21
