Dead bro
My brother, he was 24 then he passed away
Felt like the world just shattered
Felt scared and alone no one to support me
He left me alone blame it on him
Didn't know what was going on i was just 4
Then i was clear it wasn't his fault
But the fault of life, he died too fast but yet
So slow, cancer got him i was scared
Tried to help but was too late just heard the line.
I thought he was sleeping crying in his shoulder
Telling him to wake up my dad got me
He told me his in a better place so i went back home
But when i was there my brother was not
I asked my dad” where is he” his not in the house
Which was a better place for us no one talked
Just sitting there then my dad told me he died i thought
He was going to come back i waited and waited
But he didn’t come back my life was destroyed again
So after those days i went back to school
Didn’t talk to my friends for the rest of kindergarten
Set alone in the tables no one to talk too
Just remembering the days with my big brother.

My inspiration to do this poem was that when i was 4 years old my brother died and i remember i thought he was sleeping in the hospital bed so i dedicated this poem abut him and how i felt about when i lost him because he was the only that inspired me to keep going.
