What a beautiful poem. I can almost completely relate to the entire piece. You did a great job at writing a poem that was simple and engaging.

Wow this poem made me think and evaluate the relationship I have with my younger brother and it made me kind of sad to try and relate to this. I can sense much love in those lines accompanied by hurtful reminice. Yet, it is alll just beautiful

I think this is really beautiful. The language is not too overbearing and it just holds so much emotion. I really loved it.
