Because of You
I remember
when I walked to the back
and saw a paper
I looked at
that long paper
and saw the word brother
as I read down
I saw a true work of art
something I knew I had to do
I turned around
and saw you laying
in your pink suit up front
and I saw
not my cousin
but a true author
someone who could change
the worst things
into beautiful things
soon I began
I wrote about you
only you
you helped me
begin the best part
of my life
by reading something
you wrote
I could now see
that what happens
in my mind
can be changed
into a beautiful work of art
and its all because of you
I can do it to.
