A poem looking back and talking about how sometimes good can lead to bad.
Whenever I looked in your eyes
so many memories appeared
each one a light, a light of good for all

You had done so much,
great acts of sacrifice and love.
To such a simple hello,
bringing such a wonderful day.

Maybe I'm mad,
maybe I'm sane.
Yet you had such a way of making me care
care just like you
I won't let it die

Why did you care so much
your ever caring love
caused this to come.
My friend, my friend,
my friend, my friend

Your wanted to help everyone
even the worst of us.
Your journey brought you to them.
You tried so hard,
you failed too much.

Maybe I'm scared
Maybe I'm brave
but when I walked into that room,
your last room,
that memory will never die.

What caused you to do this,
I could have helped you,
but now you are gone
My dear brother gone

Maybe I'm bad
Maybe I'm good
but you taught me so much
I will let your final lesson live on
Even if you can not
