Man is expected to be strong and courageous and made of steel
He is often challenged to how he should feel
How much pain is one to bear?
When you are losing your health, it's just not fair
My man stood steadfast in his fight, he didn't let hope get out of sight
He never tried to blame anyone for his fate
For he knew it was much too late
He accepted things for what they were
He knew I would always be there
My knight, in shining armour bound
Slipped away without a sound
I'm sure his grandma told him, "come with me,"
"Your pain has now set you free."
"God sent me back for you,
Your faith came shining through."
Your time on earth has come to an end,
You'll never be forgotten, my beautiful friend.
Love, CM
