Bobby May Poet Free verse

A Brothers Love

You may of held me down
And pull my teeth
With your silly string on the door
Slammed it and made me bleed

You are still my brother I adore
You can get mad about your playboys
I burnt out doors
You can tell mom about the antis

I shook upon your bed
You can take my toys and smash them
Or, eat my Halloween candy
You are still my brother I adore

The day you went to war, I wept
The day you got shot I cried
I will never tell mom
About that day

My soul went away
When you died
For you are now next to her
A grave you share together

Tell her what you may
For my brother "Tony May"
I also died that day
