Tears for a lost Brother

Sunset tears glisten

for a life I never knew

As I hear the concrete waves

I wonder, why me instead of you?

Brother, forgive me

for wasting these mistaken chances

Incessant drama

while fate and death share dances

I lose sleep

for a handful of cells

thinking of what could have been

Save premature death knells

Blessing or curse?

Either is a void

and for that

I am truly sorry
