Finding Baby Brother

The reality of someone in my shoes is
Sometimes harsh and undeniably painful
However my heart sings a new song now
There is a resounding uplift of my spirits
After all the years of searching and wishing
Fervently for my hearts desire,I have at last
Found my beloved brother that I lost in such
An unpredictable and senseless manner so
Many moons ago and throughout this dark
Chapter of my life I have sorely missed him
Now we lift the veil and talk of what was once
Unspeakable crimes against our young humanity
He is weeping over the phone and I am too
But in a certain sense we both feel purged
Plunged into a deep feeling of relief and closure
Vowing to never lose touch again we finally
Hours later end our first real conversation
As grown-ups and truly family ties will bind
We will never be parted again,this I swear






**note:this actually just happened to me and I'm still on cloud 9 !!
