brother of my brother
A Loss. A tragic Loss. A Loss that is only felt by me.
I reach. I reach for others in my state of misery:
Something’s gone something’s let free
It’s my brothers soul that has been taken from me
Tears beautiful tears. Tears of sorrow tears of misery
Beautiful lights that obsess in my eyes
Must be the lights of the world I know despise
I don’t want to believe it. It all must be lies.
My brother is not dead he must be alive
Hate for the words pain in my eyes
They tell me of his death the devil in disguise
Breaking down my world and making alone my only friend
I can’t take the world this feels like the end
Down to the ground my knees send
Tears down my face pain in my heart now I feel worlds apart
Death comes slowly and I want it now
Once in heaven il see you close friend
Once in heaven we can be brothers again.
Life fading to black fear holding me tight
Something’s wrong this does not feel right
My life flashes and I see a light
I see your face and everything is all right
You grab hold of me and we take flight
You tell me to keep going and I’m strong
I have to be there to protect our mom
My family needs me and there feeling alone
I say ill do it and you smile at me
World flashes my mind is snapping
I leap up and I am crying
I look up at your urn and I know now I’m not dying
I know what I must do it has to be done for everyone I love
I have to live I have to be the strong one.
