My Brother, My Blood My Grief

Today, my heart heaves a heavy weight Why, O! Why? The soul crushing goodbye Fervently I pray, To see you just one more day We part ways knowing it not our last Looking ahead, thinking of our next But Death, too grotesque, had other plans; My burden to bear! Why this painful news, Only God knows Someone please! Wake me from this dream A cold, unfathomable abyss That I never want to revisit We bow our head in sadness And bury our faces in distress My heart full of pain resonates its tears If only, If only We could haggle out of our demise Gone too soon The sheer disbelief The promises you vowed to keep Goals to reach before you finally sleep You may be no more but not in my mind Still here with me If only I can see A staked heart, resounding unbound tears Forget you not; to miss you a lot Lost souls, forgotten families Never to me Good tales we've heard From generations long and dead The happy ending cliche For your soul, I pray Here our fate! separated by worlds While I wait For the powers that be, to bide us again one day But more, for in mere simplicity I will never say goodbye Forever with me, My brother, my blood In Loving Memory of our Lost Souls
