My Brother who shot himself 2 days ago.........Rest in Peace dear Paul........


Poem Artwork

 

Some things
We mere mortals
Aren’t meant to understand
Like the bitter sting of death
Suicidal breath
Depression
Darkest demons
Dancing all around us
Human pain transcends
As evil tramples life
Addiction is a bitch my friends
I know this monster well
One cannot fathom hopelessness
Until we have survived it
The art of life is love
Brotherhood
Random acts of kindness
Grace from God above
We only need to LOVE…….
Support one another
Smile
And very often
The true meaning of our quest
I celebrate my Brother
A kind, artistic man
Filled with love to give
So quick to forgive
No more torment Paul
It’s all behind you now
I miss you
But rejoice
As you hear the angel’s voice
See you on the other side
You live within my heart
We’ll meet again someday
When its time…….

This "hits home" pretty hard, Bill. My mother chose to leave this world early. I admire your strength and this is a wonderful tribute to your brother. Love and blessings to you,

You are in my prayers; such a shame! Don't understand why people have to do this; and just before Christmas too!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your friend in Tx., Karen Lynn. :( *tears!*

Paul is very lucky to have such a loving brother. His eyes, show the kindness of a sensitive man, that you have shared with us and the smile so gentle and sincere. I am blessed for knowing a little about him. I am truly sorry for your loss and pray that he is at rest.

Be gentle with yourself in these days to come.

Warmth and Love to you, Carin'
