A Friend Left Behind
The bottle, in his bathroom
pills pink and white
begging for resolution
an empty bottle, his light
He left this world
alone
as his rock n' roll friends did
He left this world
safe
from the hands that always hit
the unmade bed, the dirty dishes
and garbage
he did forget
When he left this world
he left behind
the screaming, drugs
beatings and very little hugs
The pills now gone
and so was the pain
his breath faded quickly
he heard God, faintly, cry in vain
His soul gave way to death
while I was overseas
I prayed that God did see
of all things he left behind
the most he missed
was me
