Hero's

  My brother you were so certain about the job you’d select

The only dream you had was to serve and protect

How honorable a profession everyone would agree

Why you’re no longer patrolling isn’t so easy to see

Dedicated and so proud, Matt you’re a hero to us all

Oh how intolerable the pain now that you’ve taken a fall

Down to your last step you were as brave as could be

Offering your own life while that coward tried to flee

Every breath that I take now seems so empty to me

Still down here on Earth where my hero should be

Matt we know what you did and I shiver with pride

For your courage under fire and how valiantly you tried

Our loss is so great but what I’ve gained is much more

But now you’re up above the one we adored

I promise I’ll never forget nor will the pain ever cease

Our angel above of my heart your still at peace

So proud of what you did but I still tear up and frown

The pain of those words: officer down.
 

Written by Jason Bowens, brother of slain Detroit Police Officer Matthew Bowens, that he read during the memorial service Feb. 20, 2004


God bless ALL cops everywhere!
