One More Time

You were more than a cousin,
More than just a relative.
You were a good friend,
Someone I could count on.

I took for granted you'd be there.
I never thought, what if?
Then with just on shot,
You were gone forever.

Your life was taken within minutes,
Time that we all wish,
We could go back and change.
Time we wish we could erase.

Holidays are now different.
A time we used to look forward to,
Is now a time where
We just try to get through it.

I can't begin to explain
How much I miss you.
I wish I could go back
And see you one more time.
