For Joe

by Escobar   Apr 18, 2004



Whom I've loved very much,
If only there was a way,
for us to get in touch
I would ask you why
why did you want to die?
What was so wrong or bad
for you to take your own life the way you had?
Sitting in your house that night
with your gun in your hand
you took your own life
for that I will never understand
Your life was already started again
After that horrible year
Last year I only cried and now I’ll never end to cry
we didn't get a chance to say goodbye
so for the rest of my life
I will always ask why
why did my best friend want to die?
I will never forget you
I will love you instead
for the rest of my life
you will always be my friend, like a brother
and to take your place
there could never be another.
