My Little Chaos

He was born, I was happy.
I could play with someone, 
Grow up with someone together. 

I never lacked love or care but being the youngest had its own downside.
No one to play with me, no one to hang out with, no one to share secrets with.
But after his arrival, everything changed, I knew I needed no one.
I didn't care if my cousins played with me
or my parents gave me attention. 
Because now I finally had my own punch bag, my own chaos to handle.
I loved every moment growing up.

Its scary how you grew up but also wonderful. 
I look back at time when I took your things and you cried. 
The beauty lied in the innocence of it.

But now I see you all grown up
Helping people and sharing things 
I feel immensely proud of you.

I look back at and I can tell 
I never knew how much I needed you 
Until I saw you for the first time in that hospital 
But with that came the worry and anger
Love from parents would be divided or worst taken away.
But seeing you cleared both worry and anger 
coz I knew you deserved every moment of it.

Truth to be told, for me love never decreased.
Instead it increased, the care you saw, the maturity you possess, and the love you shower 
make me wonder how fortunate I am to have you. 
At the end of the day I can happily announce
You are my ride or die
You are my home
And
without you I have nothing.
