I didn`t know my eyes had started to leak
Until I felt the tear run down my cheek,
I was thinking how much I would miss you,
You were a true friend through and through.
You were a Husband, Dad and good friend
Our heavy hearts only time can mend,
We`ll each miss you in our own little way,
But you`ll never be forgotten come what may.
I think of how you would tell a joke
And try to stem the tears on which I choke,
When you laughed it was so infectious
We followed suit each and every one of us.
I try to smile and hide my heavy heart,
For now you are gone and we must part,
I will live my life with you in mind
Can`t replace you, you were one of a kind.
Goodbye my friend I will miss you so
You`ll live on in our hearts come rain, hail or snow,
Your life on earth is over so now you are gone
I`ll miss our little chats my good friend John.
