My Uncle Poem by Sharni Baker

My uncle was the only one,
To hold me when I cryed.
He would sit there,
untill my tears dried.

I can't believe...
He left my side because of drugs,
He stole my things and ran away,
and all I wanted was some hugs.

We got a call from the police,
there last words took my breath,
I cryed because i'll never know,
If he has been beated to his death.

He could be on the streets,
I really don't want him to be alone.
He is my uncle no matter what,
no matter what, everyone needs a home.
