The Loss of Brothers

no just one but both of you are gone
nothing seems the same with you not here
i feel all alone without you here
i can't remember your voice
or see your smile
nothing can change the fact
that you are gone
but you are together
gone at young ages
i miss you both
i keep you both in my heart
never far from my mind
but yet the loss of you
can't be explained
i will never understand why
can't keep from saying why
the loss of brothers
is heartbreaking to one
i love you both and miss you
they time heals the heart
but yet my heart has not healed
from the loss of you both
may i see you again

Very heartfelt poem. I lost my brother, too. I cherish those memories of youth.

A touching ballad -I imagine it with sound of Doina by Ciprian Porumbescu-. Best regards and wishes and hope for an attempt as song of joy,too.
