You would not know,
It would be so,
Until that fateful Fall,
You'd stand in line,
Await your time,
The Dean, your name to call.

Picked up your cell,
You knew me well,
You listened, as I cried,
You'd be alone,
In Twilight Zone,
The day your brother died.

So shocked and numb,
Who would then come,
To stand there by your side?
No time to grieve,
You could not leave,
Nothing but pain inside,

A girl named Von,
Who'd lost her mom,
Not quite one year before,
Saw you faint,
She took restraint,
Before you'd hit the floor.

Prepare, life won't,
For death, it don't,
Alert for time and place,
Don't be dismayed,
Never afraid,
An angel, you'll embrace.

Though school is done,
Lessons still come,
Death is a part of Life,
To just ignore,
And close the door,
To grief, will cause us strife.

Your brother sleeps,
Please be at peace,
For now you understand,
He could not know,
He had to go,
For God made other plans.
