Dear Kevin

 
I wrote you many times over
just to scrap it
something just wasn't right
you were always on my mind and heart
in my own way I have love for you
I keep you in my prayers
 
this may be too real but it's how I feel
you and me had an understanding
you knew my greed and accepted me
the hungry part of me that never got enough
it drove me, it rode me
 
it will always be there that hunger
I can't let it cost me my mind
I know the thrill of the game
I played my part and paid my dues
so have you
 
no one got me like you did
I was the outcast really
I would look in your eyes and find a knowing
of who I was and what I felt
in your way you mirrored it
no one was as hungry as you but you fed us all
you took the fall alone
doing time god how you must have hurt
 
I want something different for you
you have it in you to be great
no one is smoother than you
with that smile and southern drawl
you captivate people they listen to you
I won't forget how you made me smile on my dark days
I want to see you again and yet I hope you stay away
 
dear Kevin you're my brother and I love you
don't think I forgot you for a minute
stay true to yourself and walk into your future
this isn't bullshit I'm spewing it's real talk
yeah the others won't get it
I hope you do
 
you deserve the best of life
I'm still not sure what that is yet
I thought I knew
I guess it's all in who you ask
down deep you've wanted things
look into yourself now and choose
 
I thought I would never see you again
I thought I lost you to a prison sentence without end
don't fuck this up
this your chance to claim what's yours
 
love Brenda
