This poem has nothing to do with science class
It was Christmas eve, I was celebrating Christmas cheer
DAVID and I were decked out, wearing our Christmas gear
Then I got some news I wasn’t ready to hear
When I heard your sisters voice I was struck with fear
I was calm on the phone when your sister told me you died,
Then I hung up the phone, hugged DAVID and cried.
Thank god we had each other to confide
Because ive never felt this way on the inside
I want to talk to someone whos been through what im going through
But the only person I can think of, well that would be you
Kyle gave me some advice that I believe to be true
He said “he’s happy so you should be too”
Im trying to be like obie trice, not mourn and celebrate
but this is the hardest thing I’ve been through to date
I cant accept the fact that this was your fate
I know ill see you again, but I don’t want to wait
when I take a shot, you know its for you
And when I draw the union symbol, it represents you too
Because god damit Evan you still a member of the crew
You mean so much to me, that’s why I got that tattoo
im putting this out there, I aint gonna lie
every now and then I break down and cry
when I thinking about losing my brother from “apple pie”
but to quote rev. Eric this is “see ya later” not goodbye
