Big Brother
I was nine when you died,
no longer to be by my side;
to teach me all that I know,
to help me live and to grow;
always kept me by your side,
as on you I always relied;
loved you more than mom and dad,
the best big brother a boy ever had;
you were my teacher, my protector,
you were my shield and deflector;
you took me where ever you went,
my guardian angel, heaven sent;
but then one day, in anger I said,
go away, I wish you were dead;
a half hour later my wish came true,
God, how will i survive without you;
