BIG BROTHER

I am sitting in my room now
Looking at the golden frame
Remembering the simple days
When life was just a game

When he hadn’t gone away
To save us all from terror
When he hadn’t made mom cry
And made our family barer

He taught me how to ride on skis
He was there for all my firsts
He never seemed to yell at me
Except when I first cursed

They tell me that it’s time now
For us to go and see
The body of a great man
Who meant so much to me

My legs don’t seem to move at all
I can’t believe I’m here
As I see the wooden casket
My eyes burst with tears
