#ThovghtfvllThvrsday Poetry

The last couple of years have not been unkind.

I am reminded.

I have grown older.

I have learned. I am wiser.

I love. I am loved.

I am alive.

I never got to say goodbye.

Goodbye

Goodbye

I wrote this verse on the 5th anniversary of my brothers passing, trying to come to terms with the grief that is still in my heart. By the end of this year he would have been gone 7 years and the pain is still as fresh as when he first got his angel wings. I can't shake off grief and I have learned to live with it. I know I'll see my brother eventually; in the mean time I'll just miss him passionately.
