Cancer Kills

My best friend of 5 years passed away this year
Cancer is pretty common nowadays, he never smoke or drank beer.

You called me everyday to see how I was getting through my depression
I would always scream and yell, raging in agression.
More calls came to calm me down
So I'd have a smile on my face and not one sign of a frown.

As the years passed, my love for you grew strong
But then not too long ago, I realised I was wrong.
I only loved you because you made me happy when I was depressed.
But now I have someone else to take care of my depression because you've passed away
Which hurt a lot more than one can say.

My best friend of 5 years
But this year in February, I got that fateful call from your parents saying "He has died of Leukemia."
I screamed and cried for days on end
Little had happened in that short time and I'd lost my best friend.

Just for you, I smile everyday
I walk to the cemetery to put flowers on your grave.
To prove how much of a loving heart you had
Being with the love of my life not long after you'd passed away sure did make me glad.
Because I know I can be happy without putting a fake smile on, knowing that you're in a safer place
Filled with warmth, love and God's embrace.

Stay safe for me, dear Johnny boy
And one day, I will surely see you in heaven.
