Poems & Songs

I hope I don't embarrass myself too much.

Robbie

I deal with things on my own
I don't know how to deal with this one
I was a kid when I had my first touch with loss
I'm an adult who had you around my whole life
This can't be real life
Why is this real life?It doesn't seem right
Still can't believe you're gone
It only happened yesterday
But you should be smiling here
With your family, friends
And your loving wifeIt doesn't feel real,
But here we areYour smile, your laugh
We're all going to miss
You crazy man, you loving dad
Taking care of everyone else
Telling no one to worry
You stubborn man
We love you forever.I was scared to hold your hand
I was scared to be too close
I saw you a few days ago,
My last words: I love you, see you later
But you were never the same
And neither were weEveryone came to see you one more time
Who knew it took this to bring us all together
All I know is that you took care of me
You loved me and I loved you
When I needed someone, you were there
Forever my uncle RobbieYou should be here,
But here we are.Your smile, your laugh
We're all going to miss
You crazy man, you loving dad
Taking care of everyone else
Telling no one to worry
You stubborn man
We love you forever.We knew it was coming
But not so soon
You held on through the night
Just to go in the late afternoon
I swear you wanted to hear everyone
One last timeYour smile, your laugh
We're all going to miss
You crazy man, you loving dad
Taking care of everyone else
Telling no one to worry
You stubborn man
We love you forever.

Author note: I know it needs editing/reorganizing, but I didn't want to leave this section empty. Also, if you can't tell, this was written the day after I lost my uncle and this is dedicated to him.
