Taken Away

Taken from my presence out mind and out of sight, taken away was the thing I held so close so very tight.
The thing I loved tore right from my grip, watching my heart tear and seeing it rip.
It caused so much pain, I dont know why it would proceed; did it really have to happen was honestly of some need?
Taken away something so dear to me, I can't find the reason but there must be one, there has to be.
My life changed that night so drastically, I can't believe it could hurt so much when he was taken from me.
He wasn't just a friend but a brother he was, always there for me, hearing me out, and giving me hugs.
There was nothing for him I wouldn't do, he was family; how could this happen how could this be?
The sorrow, the troubled times that did follow left my heart feeling so hollow.
For part I feel i must take blame, promising him and his mother saftey I didn't follow through I carry so much shame.
So now i say my final apology, my final good-bye, thinking of you not being here I tilt my head and do all I can not to cry.
