My song in memory of my brother, Jeffrey. July 6, 1954 - March 19, 1991

[Dystopian]

Jeffrey hung himself.
I often wonder if that tree is still there as some of the land was cleared and sold recently.
I drive by daily and think of him.

Rest in peace, my dear brother.

I understand now what I didn't know then...
Our father died the day before...

He loved Jethro Tull...
In my mind, this song was for him long before he left us...

A Song for Jeffrey
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSgfHjLmmj8

A song gonna lose my way tomorrow,
Gonna give away my car.
Id take you along with me,
But you would not go so far.
Don't see what I do not want to see,
You don't hear what I don't say.
Wont be what I don't want to be,
I continue in my way.

Don't see, see, see where I'm goin,
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin,
Don't see, see, see where I'm goin to,
I don't want to.

Everyday I see the mornin come on in the same old way.
I tell myself tomorrow brings me things I would not dream today.

peace~

Jeffrey loved Tull...as I did...and still do.
There was a time after his death that I couldn't listen the music...a few years.
Time heals...I promise.
