To my brother that I never met

E.R.H.

I love you I wish I could've know
I loved you and I always will
I never got to tell you that I'll miss you
I never got a chance to let you know I care
I never got that chance to kiss you
But in my prayers I know you'll be there
Never got a chance to hold you
Never got a chance to let you know how I feel
But I know that you're always looking out for me
You're always around even if I can?t see
Big brother you're everything to me
Mom says hi that she misses you like crazy
Dad says he loves you that you're always his baby
I miss you I've been doing that a lot lately
Bought you flowers the other day
Wish you could see them but your so far away
I hope I'm making you proud
I just hope I never let you down
I just hate the people that through there life's away
When you never that never got a chance
To show what you could do
To make an impacted on people with you
Wish they could live life in your eyes
The tears wouldn't stop falling
It hurts that they barely even give life a chance
nevertheless they'll give it up just for another stupid reason
If they could only just see ...

To my late brother Aug. 1, 1983- Aug. 1, 1983

    My mum had a still birth and 2 miscarriages before i arrived.
    She longed and craved a baby, and i just didn't live up to her dream.
    She'd cry everyday, saying how small and perfect baby archie was, and how unfair the world was, for letting her baby die.
    She ruined my childhood with her grief, and i've no idea how i'm meant to feel about the brother i never met.
    This poem makes me feel guilty for the way i've thought about babies who never lived. I struggle to see why people are so sad about it, i do try to emphasise with it, and your beautiful poem brought a tear to my eye.
    I'll never forgive my mum for neglecting me emotionally, but i'll never forget the pain she carried to the grave.
