DAVID
MY BROTHER
Written by Lisa Couillard - Lisa.Rossii@worldnet.att.net
There are many things that I could say,
Not one of them sad
Except for this day.
What I have written are my reflections of you,
Your big beautiful eyes
Oh so blue.
You were always proud of me,
As I was of you
Always giving me strength
When I didnt know what to do.
You always put me first
Even if you had plans, never thinking twice
To lend a hand.
Weve cried together, laughed and smiled,
Talking for hours about lifes trials.
You are my sunshine, my smiling eyes,
My dancing soul that never lies.
Though you havent agreed with some of my men in the past,
You left that my choice
Even though they didnt last.
We adopted each other many years ago,
Being the only child
Our friendship touched our soul.
To all the people who have came and went
We always felt related,
It was heaven sent.
Eventually I had kids and a life of my own
But your sweet smiling voice was always on the phone.
We have been room mates throughout the years,
You always protecting me from all of your peers.
I remember our house quiet one night,
No one around, not a sound in sight.
As I lay in my bed with the bathroom down the hall,
I make a mad dash, butt naked and all.
To my surprise, what do I see
David in the darkness peering at me.
As fast as I screamed and darted for the door
You switched on the light as I slid on the floor.
Your laughter was strong and your eyes were big
Acting as though you were at some comical gig.
Weve had so many stories
Weve told through the years
Laughing so hard, it would bring us to tears.
The times weve shared
Are priceless to me
My future without you is hard to see.
Plans for your future was something you had,
Always included, was beautiful Chad.
He is a mold of you,
You see
Carrying on your brilliant glow, for all eternity.
I often feel, you were sent from above
To care and watch over people, with unconditional love.
I just want you to know,
From the bottom of my heart,
You are a true man and were from the start.
Though you are gone, and had nothing to say;
For God has you now,
Though it seems the wrong day.
I write this poem, in memory of you,
For God bless your soul and your family too.
Even though you are gone in another place,
I will hold hands with your soul until the end of my race.
I LOVE YOU ALWAYS AND FOREVER
MY BROTHER.
