this is a journal entry for my brother who passed away aug 4, 2007
i can remember when we used to play as children... you would leave me out in the cold... you were the one everyone liked... everyone wanted to be... you were smart, funny, artistic, musically talented, you had it all. Yet all i remember was how bad you were to me... thats why we never got along... in my head i just couldnt understand... i didnt know why you were so weird... as you grew up you didnt care about human interaction, human contact.. you dropped all your friends, and never thought twice.. you just did your own thing.. in solitude. So i hated you.. we never talked... never tried to work things out...
untill you got sick...
we only had 6 months together... 6 months to make up for 21 years... and out of those 6 months you were only conscious for 5... and in those 5 months you were in surgery and gone for a month so it was actually 4 months... and in those 4 months i didnt visit you as much as i should have.. maybe once a week and maybe 3 if it was a good week... and then you were gone... just like that...
i wish we talked more... i wish i told you i loved you... never once in my life did i ever tell you that and im sorry. Im sorry that i wasnt a good younger brother to you... im sorry i fought with you at every turn... im really sorry... i know i shouldnt feel guilty but i do... im wrecked with guilt... i owe you so much...
i realized it when i was writing your eulogy and maknig a collage for your funeral. I realized that you were a good brother. In all those pictures you were next to me... making me laugh or making sure i didnt get hurt... i remember when i almost drown... everyone just watched while you went to go get help... i owe you so much... and im sorry...
I was the bad one... the one who went out and made hell for mom and dad... im the one who did drugs and didnt study in school... im the one who didnt care...yet you were the one that had to go. Your the one who didnt make it... im sorry
at your funeral when you were about to be lowered into the ground... mom said, " in heaven find me, you MUST find me, ill be looking for you..." that goes the same for me... find me in heaven bro... i want to tell you taht i love you... i want to tell you that u were my greatest teacher... i want to tell you that i miss you.. and i dont kno what to do now that ur not here...
rest in peace bro... i love you and i already miss you... watch over me and take care of me like you always have.
