It's short
it's sweet
It's the perfect treat
For our last goodbye
I'm not going to lie
I really hope you don't die
Growing up we had our fair share of fights
With flying slippers
...and that broken swiffer
But I think we turned out all right
You're not the strongest nor the smartest
Though you're much stronger than me.
And I know you'll fight the hardest
When you're fighting for our right to be free
It is said there is a friend unlike any other
One that sticks closer than a brother
Perhaps some day this will be true
But I think it's almost impossible to do
Cause I have to say,
to my brother born in May,
I've never had a closer friend than you.
So here's farewell, not goodbye
There is only do, never try
Stay strong, don't die
And of course, semper fi

For my brother, who got a last minute call to go to Paris Island sooner than expected
