Pouring, Dripping, Sheets of wetness
Soaking my bones
My knee
Remembering that day
Of moving
Just me and my brothers
Sean and Mathew
Both of ethe essences
of the word
Brothers
How I feel them within
All around my soul
A part of the same
the Same tree
A tree of love
Brotherhood
The concept of helping
Giving back
August 21 a day of impressions
A day of oracles
Of crystal balls
Falling from the sky
Dancing of moments
From the past
the present
the future
How I feel the future all around
The beauty of those
Those summer nights
Feeling her
Next to me
Now it is only a memory
A rain drop
From God
From above
From heaven
August 21
A day of memories
