Tears Pictures, Images and Photos

I know you are in a better place than I could ever imagine
There is a window between us, with one-way glass
I know you are watching me, but I can’t see you…
I loved you with all my heart,
From day one, without knowing it,
As I grew older I looked up to you and to no one else
We fought many times but you always supported,
and encouraged me in everything I did.
You were my best friend and my hero.
You used to climb through the window when you were late.
You used to make me feel safe when I was younger
when we grew up we disagreed on many issues,
You were emotional, I was practical
I like to remember our times together good times and the bad.
Somewhere in between I missed you,
I regret to be defensive when you were overprotective
I wanted to do everything you did,
because I wanted to be JUST like you!
Now I miss your smile, your humor, your complaints,
I wish I could go back and tell you how I loved you,
I will always love you no matter how long it’s been,
since the day your existence ceased..
I miss you dear brother..

FS....I started asking myself as I read this post..is it your poet..or did you just borrow it as it macthes the situation..

Let me tell..they are very expressive and only true feelings can generate such words and remember such moments...

I am out of words in such occassions but please accept my condolences..

FS....i feel the same for u even though the situation is different.

Just like you, my eldest and one and only brother have always been my motivation and role model and i always look up to him as im the youngest and my three other siblings are all females.

There was this day where we received a mail from him just shortly after the passing of my dad 24 years ago telling us that he do not want to have any contact or connection whatsoever with the rest of the family.

Till this very day, no one in my family have been able to locate him nor his family. His disappearance affected me very badly intially that i had to seek psychiatric help but as days n years go by, i would now just hope that he will someday return and make our family complete.

If this matter has affected me so badly, can you ever imagine how much my aged mother who gave birth to him, brought him up and gave life to him feels everytime someone mentions his name or at the thought of him? Although she keeps her emotions well and to herself, my other 3 sisters and myself knows how much she long to see and have him back in her arms again before she closes her eyes for good.

Although it hurts and im at times very angry for what he have done, we still pray and hope that he is well and will come back someday soon before it's too late.

Missing him terribly :(

24th of this month is his 1st death anniversary...I just cant believe that i passed 1 yr without seeing or hearing him...

just a month before he left..when he bought a new mobile he recorded one of his comversation with his lil daughter..he forwarded it to me as a test voice file...i didnt delte it....I still have it in my pc and I hear it whenever i miss him...its like hearing him over the phone..

Its not about I missing him...its more about he had a long life to live...it was unexpected... a cardiac arrest...
