Brother (1) Poem by Chan Mongol

Brother (1)

Rating: 5.0


We played and roamed here and there!
He put his one hand on my shoulder! !
We started school together!
They put me in the baby class, lower!
I cried then loudly without my brother!
Again, he is gone and I am helpless in fear! !
I wanted to tell him over and over!
He was my guide! He was my brother! !
But my mouth was not open!
Good words were not spoken! !
I even couldn't tell him how dear he was!
Chemo ignited more pain than Jesus! !
Oh God! What a state of life with death fears!
You couldn't save my brother for more years!
Why didn't you target me to die?
Why didn't you spare my brother to stop my cry! !
He was fighting, I heard his scream from pain!
All their efforts were just going in vain!
Parents taught us to care for each other!
God! You killed my brother from deadly cancer! !

I can feel the pain you have gone through in the absence of your brother who more than a brother was also a friend and a guide to you. Very poignant.
