Never Ending Rain

You had to go and that is understood.

Things just weren’t right here for you.

The feeling you have given me

Has left me alone, standing alone.

I’m almost certain that you can see.

During your absence it has given me time

To think of ways I can escape this.

To run away from the pain.

Nothing ever seems to work

It’s almost like a never-ending rain.

With you there and me here standing alone

I worry for the day to come

The day when we are further apart

You won’t be there in the coming year,

To help me through things, but you’ll be in my heart.

There is also a fear of being detached,

Of being separate for so long.

We have progressed through the years.

The times we have shared merely brightened my day

And now all I can do is shed the tears.

The hurt that I am feeling right now,

I know that you can feel it inside.

But I want you to remember that once it’s through,

You’ll always be my big brother,

Someone whom I will forever look up to.
