Into the Light
Those sparkling eyes
 As blue as the bright blue sky
 That crooked smile to the side
 Always there to be my guide
 
 Always happy, never sad
 Never good, always bad
 The endless stories of going to the office
 Or about doing his community service
 
 He’s just like my big brother
 I could never find another
 The long summer nights
 All laughter, never fights
 
 All the phone calls that woke me up
 I can still see his face, just like a pup
 Begging me to sneak out
 I wish I wouldn’t have been so filled with doubt
 
 I should have gone with him
 Now things are so grim
 As he lay down in the ground
 Unable to be found
 
 This was my best friend
 He said he’d be here till the end
 But things became such a blur
 My words began to slur
 
 Being drowned out by my cries
 How I wish I could hug him one last time
 Just to hear his voice, or see that crooked smile
 But I’m stuck here in denial
 
 As I sit here at the wreck site
 Looking at the pole that took him to the light
 Anger built up inside of me
 As I fell down to my knees
 
 I know he’s in a better place
 I just wish I could be in his embrace
 All things are meant to come to an end
 I just wish I wouldn’t have lost my best friend.
