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

by Jenn Farrell

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."

I love the feeling that not only inspired the work but the sentiment with which it was written. Any piece of poetry that can instill feeling can ever be anything but good.

This poem touched my heart, as i can relate to it pretty well. My favourite cousin was killed in a car crash earlier this year, by a drunk driver. My cousin was 17.

Sofia

Your poem REALLY got to me. I lost my boyfriend in Feb. of 2005 and it was really hard for me, and it still is. His birthday is coming up in 3 days and I've been thinking a lot about him and his family. This poem was just truly amazing. And to the author I'm very sorry for your loss as well. Throughout this whole experience I got taught to Be Strong! So I just want to thank you for writing this poem, it's very comforting. Much Love.
