The pain in his eyes
his weary smile.
it's cancer
he's stuck with it for a while.

As he painfully
tries to lift his head.
He repeats to us all
He will never be dead.

He keeps his head up high
until the end.
He keeps us convinced
his life will never bend.

He's less frightened then me
He tries not to show pain.
He fights to live
every day that rains.

Three years from then
he died in peace.
But in my heart
he left a crease.

He is happier now
his pain has lifted.
In loved ones' hearts
his soul has never lifted.

Thanx for listening,
