    For My Brother

    Sitting at home just getting off the phone. My eyes swell up like ballons the tears are coming soon. Falling in my mother's arms the only place I will cause no harm. From her arms, to the floor she can't hold me up anymore. I try to breathe, but I can't because I found out my brother has passed. Rushing to see him for the last time there are a lot of things running through my mind. Why, How, When. As I walk past all of my friends I am glad to see all of them. Hugs and tears are exchanged but now its time. I walk up the casket trying to hold it all in, but as soon as I see him it begins again. I try to get out, but I can't my friends tell me he would want me to. After giving him a kiss on his forehead I look at my family torn apart. We didn't have very much time together, but his memory will stay with me forever.

    I love this poem. I know how it feels to lose a loved one because my dad passed away last year. My dad was my role model, my hero, and my best friend. But I found comfort in God and learned how to cope and move on without him butalso living for him.

    Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.
