Dear Brother,
Dear Brother,
How I wish I could have known you, you wanted to be, the brother with life so planned, so carefree not these memories of you filled with pain but not hidden enough by the rain. You did whatever you could just to live and hide behind your tears. You faced life as hard as it was, pushing each day to the limit just to adjust. When I think of you, I think of myself, how lost we both sometimes seems, but still yet able to chase a dream. Now with your light, which glowed so bright turned off spiritually, you my brother is finally set free. A star in the night, now to help be my guiding light to the things that I know are right. And yes you went too soon, before you could heal from your worldly wounds. But now on today, my sweet dear brother it is ok because God sent you home, he sent you away to a greater place. Away from a world where it seemed you couldn’t win, into Heaven to begin again. This is where I will find you one day, two souls together swept away. Today I take with me: your smile, your laugh, the way you talked, but most of all the love you brought. I must bid a farewell on today, but never forgetting you in any way. You are remembered, you are celebrated. You will be very missed, a heaven-sent kiss from your sister with so much love, now my watching DOVE.
