Commemorating my eldest brother Ryan (08/02/79 - 06/02/12)
YOU
         could be reckless
         learned caution

         roared opinions
         became judicious

         seemed arrogant
         secreted modesty

         remained loyal
         felt betrayal

         denied fragility
         mastered strength

         continually learned
         loved to enlighten

         knew pain
         sought relief
         
         lived loud and proud
         were called Home
         are already missed
         will always be loved
