Goodbye Uncle Kevin-The Uncle I Barely Know

I can't barely remember the last time we spoke
Shared a lot of childhood dreams and adventures together
I've always thought you're pretending to be slow, a sleazy joke
Never expect to not see you again after this Chinese New Year

As hard as i try to grasp on the last words you've said to me
I realised its been ages since i've last paid you a visit
Now i can only visit you within the grounds of a cemetery
Once again i am too late,i know you've been fighting till your very last heart beat

Though you were different from other kids but you're filled with sense of humor
You seemed fragile like an open target for bullies
Deep inside, your courage surpasses everyone around here
It is a worldly loss to passed away at 21 with an unknown disease

Though you're my uncle but you're four years younger
Never in my wildest imagination that you would be leaving before me
Now i can only express my love for you in tear
Now i can only express to the tombstone in front of me

In between the drums and lion dancing
I see weeping faces and closed doors
Should we continue celebrating?
Will you rest in peace within Singapore's shores?

As hard as it gets, it is time to let go
Life has been unfair to you since your very first day
I hope you're at someplace better, i really do pray for so
Perhaps you've been suffering for a long time, and its best for it to end this way
