my uncle
I raise this liquor bottle to you

my uncle as you go to where peace can find you

as I drink raise a toast to you

the liquor helps ease the pain

as I remember your blue eyes

in front of my face

as I miss you my uncle

as I try to wash my sorrow

away as the pain of every thing

is to much to take

i left this bottle and hope your happy

as i drink my sorrows away

as i fight in this life without you

I still needed you

fighting with my father above

knowing that the battle is not yet won

as I fight to over come the pain of yet another loved one

as my tears pour like a cascading waterfall

as my pain consumes my soul

of yet another love one to pass to leave me behind in this world on my own
