Tears

Hot, wet, teardrops fall down my pale cheeks.
And I know I can't deal with the words you speak.
I've known this moment would eventually come.
But everyone's always told me to "keep up the good hope Hun."
So I did, I wished. I hoped. And I prayed.
And yes, once he was amazingly saved.
Then 7 years later the hard, but true words were said to me.
And I ran into me room and fell to my knees.
My checks were stained with awful tears,
As I remembered all the happy years.
My mom came to try and comfort me.
I turned to see my brother crying right beside me.
We just hugged each other, sitting there.
And as I hugged my teddy bear,
I held my silver cross necklace so tight.
Hoping we'd make it through the long night.
I just wished I could have told him I love him one more time.
And that he would always, and forever, be mine.
