[title] => A Letter To My Brother
[time] => 2002-09-14 20:28:56
[hometext] => This was a letter to my brother,Which i actually attached to a red balloon and let go of at the VCB memorial service in Western Australia which is held annually.Many people attended and did the same to their loved ones... I didn't mean to make the poem rhyme although in some parts,i know it does.It was just the way it all came out...
[bodytext] => If i could turn back time to that tragic day
that i held you in my arms watching you die.. I would of for the first time told you that I loved you I told you lots of stuff in life but "I Love You" was not one of them and I guess now it's too late I don't know,but if you really are reading this.. I love you and im deeply sorry. That day was the only day that i saw dad with watery eyes You know how much he always held onto his tears I never had seen him cry I guess that day brought out a side... that we didn't think he had or at least one we knew he didnt show dad sat outside all night everynight.. since the day you died he used to come in only in the morning full of mosquito bites and cooked us breakfast he always reasurred us that we would see you again but Ive lost alot of faith in everything It's not something I believe in anymore your sister's do and I dont ruin that for them I wish I could believe it too... maybe then I wouldn't be so scarred over it all they say as soon as you die your soul goes straight up to heaven and even though i got to you too late by looking in your eyes I knew you were still with me just for that split second.. I knew. A million thoughts clouded my mind and questions were and still are... around Im still wondering about alot of things I wonder why God didn't help you that day people say things like this have to happen but I dont see why it does nobody should have to go through anything like this and I always wonderd if God had the power.. where was he on that day you shot up? he knows what we are gonna say before we even open our mouths and yet he allowed me to lose my only brother my little baby brother. You always said if you were to die tomorrow for us all not to cry I guess I never took it seriously.. nobody really thinks its going to happen to them.. or to someone they love as much as I love you.. Do they? Until its too late but just like you asked for.. Im sending you this letter to remind you of how much you have and always will remain in our hearts and to let you know that... everything that you left down here on earth is okay the kids... Your niece and nephew are growing up fast and your two sisters they miss you dearly We all do.. You are one of the greatest men of all time which i have been so fortunate to have in my life You are a great man and i guess something that will always remain is the bond that only two brothers could understand Stay happy and smile down on us We hope we make you proud Love,Your bro.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
