Russell

From almost every moment together
To a lifetime of years apart
I can still feel your pain
Tearing through my heart.

I miss my right hand man
The warrior by my side
Who wouldn't let me fall
Strength that didn't let me cry

I miss my midnight confidante
3am partner in spaghetti
6am and rising strong
Working, creating all day long

Recording, revising
Source arising,
Never compromising
Value of life

Russell, always dear to me
Whether near or far to me
A bond never meant to be broken
Through me, your voice 
Will be spoken.

I love you Brother
I will speak for you 
Until our souls cross again
You're forever my first
Best friend.
