About the Poem

This poem is about my 21 year old brother who died 2 months ago in a car accident. I love him so much and even though he's not physically here, he's with me in my heart and my mind.

In My Mind

Somewhere in my dreams tonight
I'll see you standing there
You look at me with a smile
"Life isn't always fair"

You say you were chosen for his garden
His preciously hand picked bouquet
"God really needed me,
That's why I couldn't stay"

It's said to be that angels
Are sent from above
I've always had my angel
My brother - whose heart was filled with love

Wherever the ocean meets the sky
There will be memories of you and I
When I look up at that sky so blue
All I see are visions of you

"While there's a heart in me, you'll be a part of me."

My husband found this poem online and shared it with me. It really touched me. I have not been able to get these words out of my head. When I heard this poem it was 2 days after my older brother, 23, was killed in a car accident. I saw that the author of the poem shared a similar tragedy that inspired this poem, and all I really want to say is thank you! You said what I could not put into words.
