Goodbye at last, the sun settles down,
Running home, kicking pebbles on the ground.
Sun is shining, moon is bright,
I run in the door, pops on the doorlight.

I wonder if I missed another day
Another meal I had nothing to say
An empty room where you use to be,
The only person I wanted to see

I kick and I scream as I really want out
I miss you being you, and when you'd scream and shout
I wonder what you're doing out
I wonder if you still remember that I care.

I miss the times we would laugh,
Wake up in the middle of the night for a midnight snack
I miss the times where you would cry
The times when I went to say goodbye

But you left me alone, in this empty shell,
You picked me up when I fell,
You would burst a sign of showing faith,
Showing me, I could make mistakes.

Those times left by and I was so lost
But I just rested, and took a pause.
There's no more big brother, no more times of fun,
no more times we'd sit in the field, and just run.

After goodbye, I left you alone.
Wishing you'd run back crawling to home.
But you moved on, and never told me the truth,
But I know one thing, I still miss you.

We reconnected and I simply found you,
and now I know, you told me the truth.
I simply don't wonder if ever you'll be home
Because I know you'll be there, whenever Im alone.

I love you dear brother; Matthew Anthony DenBoer
