Time passes from minute to minute
From hour to hour
Second to second
With everything changed; it's so hard
Without you.
//
Growing up, knowing that I was safe
Having constant aid, I was spoiled
Spoiled by your gifts
It's in the darkest times I am without you
Without your guidance, and faith in me
My light is exposed, to show nothing
To see that all you've done was protect me.
//
A part of me left with you,
My childhood, my memories, our times
My passion for happiness
Now the dark, a chill, my nightmare
Of a world
Without you.
//
More and more I find each day
You are gone, and though still there
Not within my grasp, my hugs, or my tears
Not there to help me up when I know, that I'm not there
For your grasp, hugs, and tears
In my darkness, I know now
It's my turn.
You've made me who I am.
Good luck in the future, I know that you'll make it far.
God Bless you Ryan, I love you.

Hi Milton- it's Ryan.
Man, that was so hard for me to read because I understand how you feel.
Leaving you was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. I love you- I always will. And no matter what, our childhood memories will be ours- and ours forever. It's something between just you and I- no one else.
As brothers we share a bond, but the relationship you and I have is something special. I thank God everyday that I have you in my life, and believe it or not, you've been the reason why I've gotten so far in life.
I've always aspired to be a good enough big brother for you, and your talents, your encouragement, and the thought of you looking up to me is what's kept me going all these years. As proud as I am of you- I've always strived to make you proud.
But I'm not gone. I'm still here. I know not having me around is difficult, because I don't have you around either. But please don't feel empty, and certainly don't feel like you're nothing without me.
I can't tell you how proud I am of you. I look forward to hearing from you on the phone everytime I call because I know you're always up to doing great things. You work hard, you're gifted beyond your years, and you're nice to people. You care about others, you have compassion, and the spirit to be a leader of men, and help change the world.
In my heart of hearts, I truly believe that. And I believe in you.
You don't have to worry about making me proud, because you know I already am.
I'm sorry for abandoning you so quickly, but trust me when I say, that I'll be back, closer to home sooner than you think.
They say that without the taste of bitter, you cannot truly appreciate the taste of the sweet. Me leaving to begin my career has truly shown me how much I love you, and how much I miss you.
If there is only one wish for you right now, it's to be happy. To hold your head up high, and to be proud of who you are, the friends you're with, the unconditional love from mom and dad, and the many gifts God has given you. He gave them to you for a reason. Now you have to put them to use.
I'll be back. I promise.
Love,
Ryan
