If I had known you’d leave so soon

I lived my life busy with my pen,
Writing stories to bring good to men.
Our talks were brief, moments so few,
I was chasing my dreams, but not chasing you.
Then one day, at just thirty-eight,
You were gone, leaving behind fate.
Regret and sorrow filled my heart,
Wishing we’d never spent time apart.
If I had known you’d leave so soon,
I’d have cherished each moment shared with you.
I grieved in silence, tears I’d hide,
Crying for you, my brother, at night.
I don’t want to see more goodbyes,
I’ve had enough of the pain and the cries.
You left, and then Granny was gone,
Two dear hearts I’ve loved for so long.
I love you both and will keep praying,
For peace in the realms where you’re staying.
May God forgive and grant you rest,
With eternal joy, forever blessed.
If I had known you’d leave so soon,
I’d have cherished each moment shared with you.
I grieved in silence, tears I’d hide,
Crying for you, my brother, at night.
Years have passed, but grief remains,
Memories pull me back to the pain.
I’ll continue to write to bring goodness and light,
Hoping my words make the darkness bright.
I’ll continue to write, to share my story,
Knowing one day, we’ll meet in glory.
In heaven’s light, we’ll reunite,
No more goodbyes, just endless light.
If I had known you’d leave so soon,
I’d have cherished each moment shared with you.
I grieved in silence, tears I’d hide,
Crying for you, my brother, at night.
Now I write with a heavier heart,
Your memories woven in every part.
Though I can’t bring you back, I’ll say it still,
I love you, my family, and always will.
Devoted to my brother Ruslan
