Brother
Ive missed you brother,
Since you left this earth.
Somehow I make it through
If I'd have known
The pain you were hiding
I'd have carried that load with you
I'd give anything
For a moment more
To hear you laugh again
To see you walk
Through that door
With that goofy grin
Time is nothing
Just a thief
Stealing every second
Leaving nothing
But memories and tears
I know cannot be reckoned
The bond we have
Is much too strong
To ever become broken
There's never been
More truthful words
Written down or spoken
As days waste away
Melt into years
As time marches on
Ill honer your memory
Little brother
Until my own life's gone.
You have my word,
All of them!!
