You'll Always be My Best Friend

Well, what can I say? It's true. Rest In Peace.

 

The flowers on your grave are nice

They’re not too over the top

I’m not sure you’d have chosen them

But I guess they’re a nice prop

If you could have picked your place of rest

I think you’d have wanted to rest there

It’s quiet and peaceful like you’d want

With a light breeze in the air

Your parents are coping ok I guess

Although, of course, they’re sad

As we stand together to say goodbye

Your mum is hugging your dad

Your aunt and uncle are crying

Your cousins are upset too

The tears are falling all around

During our last goodbye to you

I promise I wont forget all the fun

You’ll always be my best friend

But I wish I could have seen you once more

Before your life came to its end

This is touching. (One small note: the "it's" in the last sentence should be "its".)
It seems like your friend was very well-loved, and that is more than anyone could hope for in life.
My sincerest condolences to you and your friend's family.
