Love for a Brother
As I reflect upon my past my mind dwells amidst our memories
An over-looked relation beheld by enforced parental remedies
A narrative that began since birth to end in the hands of time
Enhanced between the pages to exist without a chance in line
Subsequent to my birth, a child was conceived amongst a family
Both parents eroding their own lives and on the verge of insanity
Uncannily channeled through ones mind, he grew up in isolation
Only to be changed in a couple of years through God’s admiration
So it was expected he’d be rejected among the peers of his generation
Able to hold his own but still felt an absence of actual innate elation
Then penetration was re-enacted between the mother and father of this
The result was the image of my own reflection and just a brother of his
Born two years before my own time, in a way he was my mentor
So I pursued the direction he led, it’s what most parents intend for
But there was a glitch in the system, my brother refused to let live
Disagreed to my desires and blatantly disapproved each incentive
Hence the paths became split; no further bond was being withheld
I embraced the wrath of a loved one who didn’t care about how I felt
Emotionally and physically incarcerated, I knew nothing but pain
Wondering whatever happened to the laughter we both once obtained
Nothings been corrected, we’ve yet to head back to where we started
A change of heart hasn’t be made, we’re left where our paths departed
A foundation of hatred, cemented by unfermented broken emotions
Reparation seems impossible; there’re no more words to be spoken
What was once a relationship held by our parents no longer exist
Left as a memory is the few good moments of when we were kids
A lifetime of regrets and thoughts about what should matter most
On top of that is family even though it sometimes seems that it don’t
They say sometimes people are too young to love when in actuality
Children are the only ones who hold a true sense of love’s fallacy
