Brothers Mine

 

Brothers, brothers, where'd you go?

Off to heaven and left me below

Full of sorrow unexpressed,

Alone and grieving, so bereft.

 

Though I often feel you near

I wish so much you were really here.

I miss the comradeship we shared,

The crazy things we sometimes dared.

 

There’s a yearning in my soul

Where you once made it whole...

And some guilt that I still live

While you gave all there is to give.

 

But, surely as the sun brings dawn,

While I breathe, your memory lives on.

Search the world; you'll never find

A truer memorial than my mind.
