A poem


So now I have become poet, actually it's not hard when its written from the heart... Georgia was researching peoems about brothers on the net, I decided to write her one...
Brothers

I think of you often and wish that you were here, I remember all the times we’ve shared, the good, the bad, the laughter and tears.
Remember when we would fight and mum would yell and scream, but deep down we knew we loved each other, she didn’t realise that what we said we did not mean.

I miss you both so much and wish I could share all the things that are going on in my life and things that are to come, I know you still care

My memories are bitter sweet; I would rather have you here, but swap them I never would because I know while I have them you will always be near.

I remember Brendon when you got your car, your pride and joy, how grown up you looked; I remember how proud you were to take me for a ride, and instantly I was hooked. Look I thought, my big brother almost a man, taking for a drive no other, how lucky I am

I remember Mat watching you skate, I was so impressed and you were so pleased, please teach me I thought I just couldn’t wait,
I looked up to you both for guidance, support, love and care, and even though you are gone I know its all still there.

I remember many things, but I remember the love we shared above all, the way you cared about me and the things you did for me, the places we went the fun times we had, and the things we got to see.

The house is so quiet and many tears we’ve shed, but know that you are so loved and missed even though those precious memories fill our heads.

I think of you often and know that you are close but no greater wish would I have than to have those I miss the most, my big brothers!

Written in memory of my brothers, Brendon and Mathew by Mum
