Yesterday came and went

Like a great rail train spewing smoke in vent

You were 4

I was 2

We fought like mad man

Until

The night flew

And then it was 5 and 8 and beyond

Our lives as brothers were lost, oh, lost for all

And now I think and say this my brother

Without our scraps and scrapes to one another

I wouldn’t think

There was a another time

I would

Spend

That could be happier than that then

And now you sleep

For evermore

I guess I’ll soon too

Greet you in the great

Nevermore

Where ghosts of time

Hide beyond the lines

And there we, I hope we, thee

Will see one another

Another we’ll see

As if we were once

Just you and me
