Run Brian Run

And now for a piece of poetry...

There was a day 
Ten years gone

I lost my friend
My friend lost his brother

Mother lost her boy
Father lost his son

Imagine that day
Your last waking hour

As you take your last
We clutch, We gasp

Not one among us is ready
For what reality is about to rain down upon us

Just one more silence
And you're gone and you've passed

What's to do with what's left of you?

The pain is real
The tears are real
The loss is real

So we all steal a piece of what you were
We take it and praise it

I'm talking about the fun, the smile, the hope and the dream...

So RUN BRIAN RUN, just as fast as you can

they said: quit, stop, drop.

You Said: What are you talking about?  Run, Run, Run.  I won't stop until I'm done!

  1. Very nice poem Brian...I too miss my boy very much. Everytime I come across something we used to do or places we used to frequent, he pops a quick smile on my face and then I realize he's in a good place.
