Brother

I loved it how he was always there, Even when it didn't help. He was always willing to lend an ear, And he wasn't always thinking of himself. And admirable friend and confidant, I know that I can make him proud. He's the one who really taught me That speaking up was allowed. He's my dancing partner, sparring partner, "Ride down the street in a basket" partner, Falling partner, and video game partner. I can't think of what fun we haven't had together. Through hardships and memories in the making, A sock to the shoulder always made me surrender. Though we fight, bicker, and haggle, There will never be love like the one for my brother.
