Each piece of metal is simply its own.
With its own purpose, just to remember.
The pain will never escape my poor soul.
I go back to that day in September.

A wing to show that you are free to fly.
Infinity to remain together.
You said hi, but too soon, you said goodbye.
A brother is a love that lasts forever.

Every time I hear it chime on my chest,
I think of the love that you once did bring.
Distance makes it painfully hard to rest.
Now you are free to fly, and free to sing.

No one will ever be able to forget.
You showed the world how to live without regret.

This is about my brother, he passed away in September. I have a necklace that I wear daily to remind me of him. I love him so much, and he will never be forgotten. Love you Nate!

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
