My Baby Brother by JJ
He lies in a hospital bed
wires, tubes running everywhere
bandages wrapped around his head
machines reading his life
I stand there in tears
staring at him through the window
he look so small and frail
doctors say any day he could go
One last chance I have to pray
getting down on my knees
thinking of the right words to say
"I beg you, dear God please...
He's my baby brother
one reason I have to live
I made a promise to my mother
I would always take care of him
I know its selfish to ask
but if you must take his soul
then take my mine too
I'll willingly go...
God if your listening to this
I mean every word I said
make this my last wish
I'll never ask for anything again"
*I wrote this for my youngest brother. He turned 9 years old a couple days ago. Everyday I thank God...he made it through
