Unnamed
Written by John Rueben
April 4, 2002

Since you went away,
I've cried both night and day.
I miss you more than words can say,
I wish everything would go away.
Mom's pain will never go away.

I wish it was me,
can't my mind be set free.
Don't you see,
Why couldn't it be,
ME, I PLEA!

My brother's death I have done,
on my shoulders a ton,
I should have used a gun,
Feeling like I lost a son,
On June 21st, 2001.
