brother?

it wasnt too long ago that you were caught,
it wasnt too long ago when you bought your first act of freedom,
it wasnt too long ago when you still stayed at home at night.

back when i still heard your jokes,
back when i was still a kid,
back when we could still hang out in the same places.

with that first act of freedom,
you ran away from those who didnt care,
and those who truly did.

you gained bad habits,
you gained new friends,
you lost a family,
you lost a sister.

its a rarity that i ever see you,
ten minutes here or there,
when will i have a brother again?
