He saved me from the demons that slowly darkened my very soul
Proved that there was in fact light at the end of a very long dark tunnel
Yes finally someone understood the emptiness
Saw the life fading
He sheltered me from the most violent storm
Dried every tear before it meandered down my cheek
Even in such a dark desolate world
I could force a smile
Never again would the demons of loss and emptiness rule
Because as the wind knocked me off my feet time and time again
The rain beat down relentlessly
He refused to let me fall
Once or twice everything I’ve always known
Was nothing more than tiny shards of broken dreams and false hope
I wanted nothing more than to push him away
But even the smallest notion was useless
Steady as a rock, patient as the gentlest stream
He remained by my side
Life was no longer a dreadful hollow place
Death no longer crooked its finger beckoning me closer
Today life is much different than it was
The future is promising
Even so
A little storm cloud has begun to grow
His absence weighs heavily on an oh so fragile heart
An endless barrage of tears stands as proof
I escaped my tiny private hell
But he is the one who saved me




Dedicated to the most amazing older brother any girl could have

Siblings are a wonderful thing if we treat them right and give them respect.
