In Remembrance of Carlos Alexis Benítez Gonzalez

They say some souls are too beautiful for this earth and I can say that I now firmly believe so, just at 15 years old you made a mark on the people around you, you were generous, kind, loving, you accepted everyone how they were you had so much patience. When you walked into a room you really made it light up and not just over the fact that you were loud and obnoxious but because of the way your soul shined. On November 1st at 8:45am you said your final goodbyes that smile stopped showing and those eyes closed for good you slept so peacefully but I can’t lie when I tell you it feels like you took my soul with you, you were not just my little brother but you were also my best friend I don’t think there wasn’t a weekend where you didn’t sleepover or a weekday that I went without seeing you. My mind is still in shambles I texted you by accident the other day you were the worst at texting but you would always manage to text me back but when I realized it was like a rock was thrown at a perfect mirror and it shattered and came crashing down. A part of me feels like I’ll never be able to heal from this but I know I have to let you rest. You did always say you were tired and now you’re taking the best nap of your life. I would do and give up anything in this world to just sit down one last time and talk to you to be able to hug you and until the day that I am able to do that again I will have you with me at all times until the day I see you again I’ll smile when you paint the most beautiful sky’s. September 5th 2007 an angel was born November 1st 2022 I learned angels sometimes just have to go home. Until I see you again.
