Silent Echoes

Deep in my heart, there\'s an empty space,

Where grief holds tight.

My brother\'s laughter, now just a trace,

A pain that stays, no matter the flight.

 

Seventeen years, a life so bright,

Taken away by the dark of night.

Now I walk alone, with sorrow\'s weight,

Haunted by memories I can\'t escape.

 

We were close, though miles kept us apart,

A longing for more, a heavy heart.

Visits were rare, a mix of joy and pain,

Now dreams are broken, leaving only the stain.

 

One fateful night, a choice too quick,

A stolen chance, a tragic flick.

He slipped away into the cold and dark,

His laughter gone, his life a mark.

 

The news hit hard, a shock too great,

A sibling lost, a void I can\'t shake.

I wished to see him, to hold him tight,

But fate was cruel, taking him from the night.

 

Through tears and whispers, I try to find peace,

In memories of him, in moments that cease.

His smile, his laughter, stays in my mind,

A bittersweet song, forever intertwined.

 

I\'ll hold his memory with love and pride,

In every step I take, he\'ll be by my side.

Though silent echoes, he follows my mind,

His spirit lives on, a calming ride, life\'s journey, one to stride.
