My angel

My angel is not too far from here,
Actually he is very near.
A man that I once knew,
But I lost him out of the blue.
His name was Uncle Chuck I will start,
He had a wonderful heart.
I remember all the wisdom he shared,
And how he always told me he will care.
I remember that goofy smile he would always get,
When I would give him a hug every time we met.
I remember how I use to call him my best friend forever to last,
But that was all about to change really fast.
All those magic tricks he showed me day and night,
Was about to disappear from this evil fight,
It took over his body and his mind too,
He wasn't the Uncle Chuck I always knew,
I saw him with the life almost out of his face,
All I knew is that I wanted to run from that place,
It scared me all the time,
Because I knew that was a sign,
A sign that my best friend might just leave,
But not just for a moment, forever from me.
Then the lord lay ed something on my heart,
That we will never be apart.
Because my best friend is with me now,
Even though you might not be able to see how.
I feel him around me everyday,
I know he is my angel all the way.
