To My Late BrotherTo my late brother,
your suicide ripped my heart
from its moorings.

Dia De Los MuertosI come to see you in this gray place.
The place between awake and asleep,
The void between life and death,
I come to see you in this place.
In a few short months the veil will lift.
The gray...

I’m sorry that I have so many problems.
You helped me move into tomorrow.
You never felt sorry for me.
Always there in need.
I don’t want to be a burden.
You would stop by rain and sun.
Never hesitated.
Always...

FAMILY AND TRIBEFamily is not anything
But everything
Family the root
You the offspring

To walk side by side
Through all seasons without leaving.

Liam and Noel GallagherTalk of an Oasis feud is over,
Brit-pop the corks for the supernova,
fair play to those Burnage boys,
tour dates set to make some noise,

My BROTHER My brother my muse
Not to be use but love
My companionship
A friend like never
I always confide in thee
Just like my shadow
He never leave me
Through the thick and thin.
My Anchor when I'm down
Elevating without price
Replenishing...

Brother from another motherHad some rough years
With a bright smile I wear
Didn't want to shed a single tear
Didn't open up hid in the dark
While my heart was teared apart
Feeling like I was nothing on this...

who simply insist
To pray, ask the divine
to bring back his...

The importance of being swell,
