My Brother

My heart has been broken since the day

you had to go and the memories I treasure

dearly are in the tears that still flow.

You’re in my thoughts every day and that’s

how it will always be, for you may

be up in heaven now, but you’ll always

be with me.

If only I could have the chance to see your

face once more or to hear your voice one

final time, just like it was before.

The day that heaven calls for me will

be a relief from all this pain, I’ll

run to you with open arms and

we will meet again.
