God needed an angel

A little something I wrote after my special pal Robbie passed away after a hard fought battle to Duchenes Muscular Dystrophy

It sometimes hurts to care, Looking around the room, feeling of no use, As tears of friends falling everywhere, Yet there was nothing that I could do. Because in death, there is never a good excuse, But for one to die before he grew, Must mean that God needed another angel, Yet still, the sorrow dangles, And there is nothing much that I can say, As I watch you, my friends, cry away,

Yet, in truth, he never really left, He's been with you all along, He is the guardian angel, Singing that calming song, To slowly lull the pain away, Just as he will always be there, Protecting you in the wake of every day, Because life isn't always fair, And God sometimes needs another angel.
