My Brother

When we were young we stuck together
Side by side through all kinds of weather
Then as we grew we drifted apart
We went our own way, followed our heart
Chasing our dreams through thick and thin
But just look where we are together again
Neither fate nor chance has brought us here
But the brotherly love we hold so dear

If there's a word that describes the greatest brotherly love with honesty so profound and genuine... it's this poem. Though the proverb tells: You can find e.g. a second wife or husband or friend; but never a different brother. Thrilling poetry indeed. Wishing you all the best.

Brotherly love is so inportant, in a world so mixed up in the complexity of wickedness. Nicely written piece. Sincerely ,Moses
