R.I.P
                                   A
birth and  a death
                                and the
loneliness is all that's left
                                 with
the pain and the tears
                                still
lingers after 25 years
                                 to
some he's faded to just a name
                                 for me
I remember him all the same
                                 the
time that's gone hasn't eased the pain
                                 a
sadness I still see in his fathers eyes
                                 like
the one I seen at his final goodbye
                                
through the years so  many days have past
                                   and
that day in December will forever last 
                                god
called upon one of  his favorite sons
                                 gone
before his precious life ever begun
                             as I
brushed my hand across the coffin
                                  that
was no bigger than a box made of wood
                                   
from the hands where Jesus stood
                             like a fog
I couldn't see I felt a final breeze
                                 Julian
I'll soon see but for now rest in peace
