The Day My Brother Cried

Casey
My brother he's always been tough

Still is

The only time I saw him cry

When his best friend died

He was the brother Ty never had

They lived together

When Noah wasn't in Iraq or Afghanistan

They fished and hunted together

They even worked together

The first year without him

My brother's first birthday without Noah

Was one of the hardest moments I've ever had with my brother

He cried, sobbed, right there at the bar

Drinking their favorite drink without Noah

Then he told me about his nightmares

And how he dreams of Noah every night

I tried to tell him eventually it would be ok

But I know it never will be

Noah will always live on inside of both of us

Tyler's my older brother

I cannot think of anything worse than watching

Someone you looked up to your entire life

In such pain and misery all by himself...
