Your Eyes

I know your eyes,
Because their
mine, too.
Same brown hair
But,
Mine is longer.
Same dark skin,
A gift from Dad.
I wish,
There was more
We had in common.
But You were You,
As I am I.
There were nine years,
Between your birth
And mine.
Right now,
You'd be twenty-five.
But
You were cut
Short
On time.
The place you lie,
Is far different
From where I stand.
But don't worry,
In time,
We'll be together again.
Until then,
just know,
I love you
And
You are always in my heart.
