Brother Death Poem

Next Poem >>

A girl mourns the death of her big brother.

Gone

©  Christina A. Covarrubia
Day by day I think of you,
How can all of this be true?
I can't believe you're really gone,
I still can't accept it,
Even after so long.
Just the thought of you makes me cry,
I never even got the chance to say goodbye.
Every picture, every letter,
I don't know if it will ever get better.
I always smell your familiar scent,
It makes me think of all of the times we've spent.
I know we didn't always get along,
And every time we talked, it would always go wrong.
So many things I never got to say,
I never imagined you'd ever be so far away.
You were my brother,
And I loved you like no other.
In my heart you'll always be,
You’ll be my guide and help me see.
I'll never forget your soothing voice,
I would take your place if I had a choice.
But now I have to let you rest,
Although without you my world's a mess.
I miss you with all of my heart,
I wish we never had to part.
I know you're always by my side,
So now I guess this is my goodbye...

Rest in Peace Manuel- Christina

This poem touched me like no other!!! Christina , you reminded me of how death is near yet far. I fear death, but what I fear more is the death of my dearest ones. We don't realize how much we love them until they are taken away with no return.
Thanks a lot for shaking my dead spirit, " Hey! You're alive. Remember!"
