Short Poems

Memories of You
The memories of you linger on
Even though you are no more,
And it feels like something’s wrong
After you closed your life’s door.

Forever Missed
Brother, you left without warning
And now we all feel so torn,
Your presence is forever missing
And our hearts forever mourn.

Eternal Bond
Though you left this earthly ground
Our bond remains unbroken,
Forever in our hearts you’ll be found
And never be forgotten.

In Loving Memory
In loving memory of you dear brother
We hold on to the times we shared,
Though your absence leaves us all a shudder
In our hearts and minds, you’re always there.

Gone Too Soon

Gone too soon, my brother dear
My heart aches, my eyes shed tears
Memories flood my mind so clear
But now you’re gone, it’s hard to bear

We shared our childhood, laughed and played
Together we faced whatever came our way
Now you’ve left me, I feel afraid
Of life without you, I can’t convey

Your smile, your voice, your touch I miss
A part of me that’s now amiss
I wish you were still here with us
But God has called you home, I trust

I’ll hold on to the happy times we shared
And know that you are always there
In my heart, forever fair
My dear brother, gone too soon, in my prayers

Brother, My Guardian Angel

My dear brother, you were taken away
And I couldn’t understand, I couldn’t stay
The pain was too much, I had to pray
That wherever you are, you’re okay

Days turned into months, months into years
But the memory of you, still brings tears
Yet I feel your presence so near
In moments when I need you here

I know you’re watching over me
My guardian angel, you’ll always be
Guiding my path, so patiently
Till we meet again, eternally

Brother, you were more than just a sibling
A friend, a confidante, through thick and thin
Your love, your spirit, forever within
My heart, my soul, where you’ll always spin

So my dear brother, know that I’ll always cherish
The memories we made, that will never perish
And though my heart still might feel nervous
I know that with you, I’ll always flourish.

Long Poems

My Brother, My Light

My brother, my light,
Gone too soon, out of my sight,
Taken by the hand of fate,
Left me with memories, sorrow and weight.

He was my companion, my friend,
A brother whom I loved to the end,
He taught me how to be strong,
And how to distinguish right from wrong.

His laughter was infectious,
His smile always genuine and precious,
His heart was pure and kind,
Leaving a legacy behind.

I remember our silly fights,
And the joy we found in small sights,
We shared secrets, dreams and hopes,
Together, we climbed the highest slopes.

But now he’s gone, leaving an empty space,
The pain is unbearable, I cannot erase,
The tears fall endlessly, day and night,
I miss him more than words can write.

He was the sunlight in my sky,
The breeze that blew the worries by,
The stars that lit up my way,
Now, he’s a memory in my heart to stay.

Rest in peace, my brother, my light,
You left my life, but not my sight,
I’ll cherish the moments we had,
And keep you close, never to be sad.

Forever In My Heart

Oh, my dear brother, you left this world too soon
Leaving behind a life that shone like the moon
Your smile, your laugh, your infectious cheer
All the memories we shared, now stained by a tear

You were the light in our family’s eyes
A flame that flickered, then suddenly died
The pain of your loss, it’s hard to bear
As we struggle to move on, to breathe in air

I remember our childhood, so carefree and fun
Playing in the park, with you in the sun
We laughed and bickered, but love was always there
You were my protector, my hero, my friend so rare

Growing up, we went our separate ways
But the bond we had, it never fades
I watched you soar and conquer your dreams
Now I’m left here, in agony, it seems

The memories of you, they flood my mind
And in my heart, you’ll forever be entwined
Your spirit lives on in the things you loved
And your legacy will never be unloved

I know you’re looking down on us, up above
Smiling with the angels, so full of love
Though my heart is heavy with pain and grief
I’ll hold you close, and find some relief

For you were a gift, a treasure we had
Your love and light, we always be glad
And though you left, I know you’re not gone
Your presence will be with us, forever on.

Rest in peace, my dear brother, till we meet again.
