A heart cursing with pain, with a unwillingness to let go.
Her blue eyes turn red from the sobbing tears.
As a bitter cold blows the final goodbye, we see them lay the young soul down,
then we see them lay a red rose on his casket.
Screaming in the night, as a wild beast is being beaten mad.
Screaming of home, never to see him living there again.
An mothers broken heart is turning with bitterness,
and growing even more with suffering.
The lost of a son,
having three more, could this mean a end for the rest of them?
not seeing the truth, they grow in the darkness of there childhood.
what will become of these Three?
Son to Son. Life for a Life.
Peace is what needed to stay living right.
I say these words, but my heart is not hearing them.
the bitterness is to great in my heart.
I look at your photo and see the happy face of you and your wife,
the two of you need each other.
Why is it that the one you need the most is the one you have to let go?

This is wonderfully written. Sorry to hear about your cousin. I know the feeling of letting someone you love go. My best friend in high school got tired of being bullied and teased at school and went home one night and committed suicide. I still miss him so muc and it has been almost 15 years.

SENTIMENTS WHICH SEEM TO BE SO TRUE!!!
It does seem like we always lose the one who is helping us the most in life, we do move forward though with a strength we find from somewhere.
