The lies your eyes tell
So many naughty tales
You tipped and fell
Got pricked by nails

How smart you turned
Faking each smile
You were a friend
Promised me a mile

I watched you suffer
In worst times of life
Helped you recover
With dedicated rife

Sad news came my way
You said, Goodbye
Days after days went by
My tears dried,
                          
                          Now I just watch the sky
                          For you left so soon
                          I still wonder, why!
(Dedicated to my Dear Bruce)
