Topic Brother A special the baby brother the start Tiny and beautiful moms attention eyes on him cries, smiles, laughs energy in boundless what a joy to have this Brother Little Brother Baby Brother forever decades later a story told to a sister words from a heartbroken older brother Man i love him but whats happening now is breaking my heart Oh yea i Say , he has broken my heart a million times and yes we still love him our baby brother so i ask what is so special about him that this is the first time he broke your heart Baby Brother never disrespected me Wow I say tell me something of this relationship Well he said I was his big brother, he was my little brother He looked up to me, he followed me i mean ran behind me when i would go to practice, My older brother was athletic, he played all sports, not sure why baby brother did not follow suit. Now i know where he learned to box, older brother now i know why he can run fast chasing his older brother, love for bicycles older brother, love for cars older brother. Older brother left for the Army and baby brother met adolescent life alone got into a world of bad so now we have this lots and lots of love but lots and lots of pain. if only little brother went on to the Military if only he didn't replace big brother for brother in law things would be different I'm sorry so sorry what can i do now to fix nothing this is my consequence my families burden now do i have to take the blame I did not know better....

At least now you know better than to accept the blame, right? I hope so. It sounds like it because you used past tense. Ends optimistically!
