Dear Brother
By Michelle Miller

Dear brother,
   You will never grow up,
   Never grow old.
   You will never lose hope,
   Never be cold.
Dear brother,
   You will fall down,
   But I’ll be there to help you up.
   You will try to hide,
   But I’ll always see you and know what’s up.
Dear brother,
   You help me when I fall.
   You cheer me up when I bawl.
   You always smile and make me laugh.
   You know when my life is about to crash.
Dear brother,
   Please always be there.
   For as much as we joke,
   I really do care.
You are my brother, and the love is really there.
