Poetry: Death of a sibling

by Timothy Light

Created on: August 01, 2010

To My Brother, Benny

The stars we seen that fateful night
will remain in my eyes until my demise.
A force of nature that kills and lets live,
gravity benny is what god did give.

Barreling down upon the earth
with speed and wind through your hair,
me and adrian remember it well,
our brother gone forever.

Laying beneath the starlit sky,
our mother and our brother here lie,
wreckage littered all around,
blankets strewn upon the ground.

Two lifeless bodies here on earth,
dance in the heavens like their day of birth,
watching slowly as were all cleaned up,
preparing to live without their touch.

As time goes by I cannot forget
that time in the mountains where we let,
our souls part in earthly ways,
dear mother and brother heaven awaits.

Were living fully to our wildest dreams,
no matter how often I hear those screams,
dear mother and brother we will wait,
until god opens for us his heavenly gate.
