Shannon

Just a memory are you, my brother. Your existence was short , in the midst of it all it was a tender sweet melody. The "November Rain" came and swept you away, your spirit stays with me like that of the summer dew. I never knew you, my brother although I feel you like a razor blade on my aching heart. Still mourning, still needing the brother I never knew. I cry myself to sleep wondering what it would have been like. We were alike I feel more than others. We connect. I know your here, you take away all my fears. Nobody knows, nobody understands, I know you do. You know me better than anyone ever could. Your presence no one can ever take away. Your a part of me my little child. Are they treating you well, were you've been assigned? How about a quick rewind through time. The day you came, stayed and left. He is also my brother, but knows nothing of my soul. He never stayed long enough to see me. He left with the girl who stole his heart, when he left he always tore me apart. He didn't care, he just left me there crying in the breeze. Only you brother are like me, you are alone as I am. Maybe I'll cross the seas of time, and walk the golden line to be with you. They'd never know, they'd never miss, I must blow you this small kiss. Maybe the big man will change his mind, and we'll get back just in time to show them that you were mine. My brother. I love you Shannon.
