Trail Of Tears

You made a bad decision,
you left me alone livin'.
The pain I feel is real, not fiction,.
You were my older brother, my best friend, it was a givin'.

The pain I felt when I heard the news,
I fell to the ground screaming, lost and confused.
I was looking for someone to accuse,
But in my heart I knew it was you.

Your memories are flooding my brain.
Sometimes it drives me insane.
I cry at the rain.
My heart is melting with pain.

I will remember you forever and always
My love and thoughts I'm sending
because my tears will have no ending.

I lost my brother a month ago. He was shot just after his visit to see me. He and his girlfriend were walking on the street. I feel so lost without it. It was just the two of us. Our parents died before him. It still hurts, and I think about him every single minute. I loved him so much, and I pray for him more than I pray for myself. I never thought he would die the way he did, but God did what he was supposed to do. I'm working on myself. I'm trying to pick up the pieces even though it's hard.

My brother Tommy was killed in a car accident by a drunk driver on April 23, 1993. I miss him every day. Rest in peace. Give hugs to all our other relatives with you! I love you forever, and keep watching over our family here. Missing all of you.

I lost my brother from a car accident. He was hungover when he was driving to work one morning and hit another vehicle head on. I am sorry for your loss. My older brother was 25. The person in the other vehicle died the next morning. The last time I talked to my brother was three weeks before the accident. I remember the last thing he told me was that whenever I needed anything to call him. Thank you for sharing your poem and your story.
