Three young lives,
sadly taken away,
no one possibly saw it coming,
that cold November day
An innocent child,
abused by his father,
what could've been prevented,
was to much of a bother
How could this man,
hurt his child so bad,
just leaving him broken,
beat up and sad
Having good friends,
to take him away from his pain,
by the hand of his Dad,
a monster no one could restrain
Desperately trying to save their friend,
their lives came to a tragic end,
for a drunk driver behind the wheel,
inflicted wounds that never would heal
This poor boys life ended in horror,
couldn't be saved,
from his own father
Three brave young friends,
who always stuck together,
now in God's hands,
live in our hearts but gone forever
