They don’t know my sadness
For I do not tell them all
My brother I still do miss
And my tender heart is raw

For he is now in heaven with God
Watching over me
He was handsome, crazy, funny, and odd
But I loved him more than anything you see

This is all so surreal
I wish his killer would admit it
But he made me as happy as a happy meal
And my brother I will never forget

I miss my brother oh so much
And I would die for one more touch

This is about my brother who was killed in 2009, 10 days after me and my mother birthday. He was ran over after he made a few bad decisions one night. There is alot more to the story than anybody will ever know. I still Grieve over him, i love him and miss him so much.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
