26 months I had to prepare,
Of importance or relationship I was not aware.
Born into friendship, you were so lucky.
I never know the next time you'll hug me.
"Brother" they say, is the proper title,
But "Friend" says it better, there is no equal.
None can divide the connection we share,
The laughter, acceptance, and mutual prayer.

Distance, they say, makes the heart grow fonder,
I know for sure I can't wait much longer.
The distance pains me, but I'm doing my best.
Please don't be angry, please don't fret.
I'll be home soon, reunited again.
They have no idea what words have been said.
Through Hell and back is where we've been,
Hand in hand, you should be my twin.

Gravity makes us fall, but we reverse the effects,
I invite your desire to overprotect.
I know its of love, and I hold you dearly,
You'll be in my heart for all of eternity.
