Brother
The closest flower
To my heart
A petal's final hour
It was love from the start.
I've lost this petal
swallowed by the wind
My heart hasn't settled
when your life slowly thinned.
So many petals have blown away
I'll always love you even to this day
I've held onto this flower
For much too long
My tears are a shower
At a funeral song
But now you're gone
Only the stem remains
It won't be long
Until it rains
And when it rains
A seed will sprout
From the soil grains
A flower will poke out
This flower is not the same.
But within my heart there burns a flame
A flame that will never forget
The best of times
That we've had yet.
