Brother

A very emotional poem that explain the bond between two souls that suffer from mental illness. It is heart warming that someone so close to me shares my pain and I share his.

Brother

Come stay with us

Do as little, or as much as you want

Words, such incredibly special words

Spoken with such sincerity, bring tides of relief through endless streaming tears.

Emotions that have been held back for years.

Words that are better than “I love you”

More exciting than any childhood Christmas memories at the age of two.

A bond between me and you, from the same, special genetic two.

Incredibly close, unwaveringly tight, a brother’s intimate words, harbour shards of soulful and heavenly light

It’s now my time to utter the same line.

Come stay with us, stay with me and mine.

Gather strength and peace through uninhibited healing time

Rest your tired body, soothe your acing mind.

Let us repay your love, in some small way in kind

Brother, my beautiful Brother, come stay, I pray.
