My Brother
He was my brother
He was everything to me
My kingdom come
All I ever wanted to be
So many years of loving
We dedicated together
An eternal friendship, an eternal bond
A love we’d share forever
Until the day that wrecked our lives
Until we got that news
That my baby brother, all I had
I was going to lose
I held him tightly in my arms
And told him not to cry
That he’ll be safe and in great care
Of the angels in the sky
Each night I’d sit beside his bed
And watch my brother moan
In pain and awful heartache
Just wanting to come home
I watched his illness killing him
Deteriorating fast
I’d kiss his hand and stroke his face
Each day and night that passed
Each night I’d look out from my home
At the starry skies above
And hope that god is treated with
My brother’s sacred love
