Poem: Good bye, my brother

My brother Eepeebee an awesome guy
I don’t know why you had to die.
You were so cute as a little boy,
You smiled at us and brought us joy.

Even though we had our little fights
Over silly things like wiring lights,
I never wanted to be a pest,
I needed your skills, ‘cause you’re the best.

I’m glad those times were only a few,
It was hard for me to argue with you,
But that’s just me, as you are you.
And in the end you always came through.

Our hearts are broken, as you know,
We really can’t bear to let you go.

We wish so much that you were here,
It’s happy thoughts that will get us through,
Like all the fun we shared with you.

And now my poem will come to an end,
Until the day we meet again,
I pray that you are now at peace.
Good bye Eepeebee, with love from Sim.
