No One Knows A Siblings Pain by Brandye Jackson
On Friday night’s I’d say “I wanna go------” He’d say “Let’s go to Frenchy’s”
We knew each other like that, he could finish my thoughts. Can you understand why his death has me lost.
I could tell him secrets, they never left his lips. I know that, for by now, someone would have slipped.
Sometimes when I was really down, and thought no one could see, He’d sit beside me on the couch, and put his arm around me,
He wouldn’t say a word, he sat silently instead, He didn’t have to, I could hear him in my head,
“Sis, everything will be alright, I’ll give you time to cry, then I’m going to get a six, we’ll talk about it tonight”
You see, my brother was my friend, in good times and in bad No one will ever know the closeness that we had,
Derek I love you and miss you, My life will never be the same, I’m trying will some difficulty, To ease this never ending pain…..
