Brother

Today was an bad day for me.  I recently lost my best friend in October last year.  We did everything together and experienced all of the experiences that two men could.  From high school to adulthood, we been through a lot.  He was the type of person that will do anything for you.  During high school, he was shy and timid. But, hanging around me, made him come out of his shell.  Nothing could tear us apart.

When it came up for being in relationships with woman, was a whole new ball game.  We had women that would try to tear us apart or even try getting us to fight one another.  But, we showed them that they will fail miserably.  He was there for me when i was in trouble, in the hospital, and in frustration with my girl-friend.  He was the only person that could calm me down when i was angry.  He was the type of man that anyone would get along with. When i had my son, i made him godfather.  He treated him like his own and my son adored him.

With him gone, i feel lost.  An empty spot in my heart no longer filled.  I will miss him terribly.  It’s hard to do the things that i like to do, because we used to do things together.  Such as, play video games, play pool, go out to play basketball, and spend time with family and friends.  Sometimes i feel him over my shoulder and telling me its going be alright.  But, knowing i can’t speak to him again, makes the feel worse.

All i can do now, is try to move-on and push for the future that God has planned for me.  I will always cherish our friendship and brotherhood we shared.  A person gone, but never forgotten.
