Brother Poem
a letter to my dead brother
To My Brother

To my Brother:
Words are hard to describe feelings,
I have always been better with images.
Yet writing down how much I miss you,
Seems to give me more tranquility.
Writing to let go, to give this all a place.
It will never heal, it will never go away,
But just learning to give it time and space.
I can tell you how much I care, how much I would give to have you back in my life,
But you know all of this and it won't change anything, that's what I am learning within time,
Writing to tell you how much I have learned, to show you that through fragility I become a stronger person
More able to understand, more able to listen and to care,
Hurt through loss, I've become yet a wiser person

I will be saying goodbye to my brother before I have even said hello... All I have is one picture of him ... Just one... It looks like he is sleeping , but I know that he is not ... Every night I pray for him and every night I ask god Why Why Why.... I will never see my little brothers eyes open and never see him grow up ...! Why is the world such a cruel place???? That is the question I will always ask!!!... xxxx love you little man, Today, Always and Forever xxx
Rest In Peace, Rest In Peace xxxxxxxxxx :-) :-(

All you have to do if you've lost someone as close to you as I have is do things to keep your self occupied and remember that they are always in your heart, and that you and they know that.
