My Best Mate x

You Were Amazing,
The Strongest Man I Have Ever Known,
Heart Attacks, Diabetes, Strokes,                      
And More You Were Thrown..
But You Fought Them All,
You Fucked Them Up Good,
Muhammad Ali,
Or Cassius Clay,
Wouldn’t Stand A Chance,
Had He Got In Their Way..

They Tried To Destroy You,
Break Down Your Spirit,
Eat Away At Your Mind,
Sometimes Without Reason,
Life’s So Fucking Unkind..
Taking Your Soul,
Such An Outrageous Sin,
Your Strength,
Your Courage,
You Found From Within..
A Lesser Man,
Would Have Surrendered,
And Crumbled,
Just Being In Your Presence,
I Was Truly humbled..

Just What Did You Do,
To Deserve So Much Shit,
I Would Have Given Up,
Called It A Day And Quit..
I Never Saw You Angry,
Or Hear You Complain,
Laughing And Joking,
Even Though You Were In Pain..

I Missed You Yesterday,
And I Miss You Today,
My Life Lost A Light,
Since You Went Away..
