Welcome to Marina999uk's Poetry Patch

Watching my Brother Die

At my brother's bedside
Watching him die
Holding his hand although I couldn't walk with him
I noticed the form of his fingers
Cast from the same mold
Like a male version of mine

Weaker than he'd ever been, but stronger
I could only admire and berate him for fighting
A battle he could never win
He'd forgotten he'd got no chance

I looked at him and loved him
Hours and hours
As I'd looked at my new born baby
Never tiring of the sight
Although his body had become a sad shadow of his healthy self

He was still my brother
His bright soul shining through
And humor, amazingly, to the last
"I got dealt a bum hand" he said
Yeah Steve, but you sure played it well
Oh boy, did you play it well
