An Ex And A Brother (Never Thought I'D Miss Them So.) Poem by Sarah matthews

One day that I thought would never come.
The day that both men in my life, that I cared alot about,
would leave. Not off to colleage or to a job, but
both to go and get the woman of their dreams.
The only two boys in my life that knwo the real me,
now no longer boys but men on a journey.
I love them both to death and they are the only
thing I ever had in my life to help me through it all.
Now I need to help them and let go, as hard as
it may be I can't let them see that I don't want them to
go, but I must show that I have no problem with them leaving,
and pray to God that they get there safe and come back safe.
I don't want either of them to leave, but it's not my desicion,
all I can do is sit back and wathc them drive away into to the blue
sky, and trust them to come back to me.
It's somthing they have to do and I understand that,
but I just pray that nothing happens to them or me while
they are gone. I never did understand the concept,
of how bad it would hurt when they both left me.
At first it was just on of them leaving me, now both.
Those playground, best friend, I never leave you, days are over.
Now the I'm sorry, I have to do this for me, days have come.
These are the days in which I have always dreaded, but now
that they've come, I am proud to see my two best friends,
on their way to what they want in life, and finally gettting what they
want!


I love you both.
Brett, you were always there for me, although we never did make it as a couple. You still stayed by my side forever.

Tim, you're my brother what can I say, I love you to death adn hope that this girl you are chasing after is well worth the risk.Thanks for all the advice.
