Insights Into A Shattered Mind

Eric

The sights from that distant day,

Linger still within my mind,

The thoughts as your body fell,

Burned still within my brain,

I rushed to your side,

To ease your fall,

Your body heavy in my arms.

The ragged breaths, 

The fading light,

Within your broken eyes,

I did what I could to ease your pain,

Although your life was fleeting,

I cared for you til you left us there,

On the wings of angels.

What could I have done,

To have made a change,

In the way things went that day,

For those brothers left,

And your wife and child,

I would have given mine, 

So they could see you again.

Rest easy now my brother,

In the sweet release of time,

Till we meet again upon the green.
