To My Brother
I don't think that I have ever told you
That you were my very first best friend
When we were just little
you were my favorite person to play with
You were the only one
who could put a smile on my face
A smile that was "REAL", not fake
You were always there to ease the pain
The only one who could truly understand
You know what I mean
I remember all the goofy things you did
Just to make me laugh
I remember all the fun
we used to have
Now that we have grown up
Not much has really changed
You are still the person I want to call
When something good happens
Or if I am having a bad day and
I just need to talk
Though we are miles apart
I still feel so close to you
I miss spending time together
I really miss you
I wanted to tell you the things
I think about everyday
But in our busy lives
I don't get to say
I want you to know that you are the BEST
To thank you for all
the memories
I remember all the little things
Like your "burping air-guitar"
All the stupid, funny things we did
All the rides in my piece of crap gray car
But most of all I want to tell you
That I love you more than words can say
That you are not only my brother...
But my BEST FRIEND too
