Mourning
Glass
after glass,
bottle after
bottle,
hoping, needing,
wanting to
erase the
pain.
Wanting
to repeat
history,
to do the
right things,
to be
there at
every beck
and call,
to say
“I love
you”.
Wishing
it was
not true,
that it
was a dream.
Drink after
drink,
clouding the
mind,
yet not
the questions:
why him,
why him?
All
prayers, in vain,
many sleepless
nights,
I am
more deserving
of such
a fate,
Too
young.
The
questions burning
in the
mind,
Why him,
O Lord,
why him?
Such endured
by a small boy.
A whole
life ahead,
snuffed like a flame.
I
loved him.
The
sun shone
once again,
Peace of
heart regained,
knowing he
rests in
the bosom
of the Lord.
Please
my dear
brother pray
for me.
