Sacettred Man

With the anniversary coming up

little brother!

you are all that is in my mind

the only one who loved me back.

Nine years past,

I was lost and stumbled around the world

no one knows who I am

the large piece of me 

was scratched off the past

with you gone.

Now, 

To piece together this broken man

No one dares to go on the path.

To find me,

I am! 

scattered among 

as the fragments of fading memories

around the globe.

An alien in a different world.

Stranger to the homeland.

Mother tongue now a foreign word.

Little brother!

if you had been here,

I could have found myself.

Who I was in your mind,

Bread crumbs back to home.
