O' Little Brother Poem by joanne fenner

O’ little brother,
We were born from the same mother,
But our lives have been like no other,
We never really got to know each other.

Please never feel I do not care,
I wish every day that I had been there,
Someone to tell you, you can make mistakes,
That to keep going however long it takes.

To live your life the way you make me proud,
To tell you I’m listening to you when you sing out loud,
Even though it is hard to see you a lot,
I never forget the little brother I’ve forever got.

I’m the sister who has lived this life like you,
I’m the sister that had some demons too,
Had to discover a world I never knew,
I swear when you finally fly, you’ll wake up brand new.

O’ little brother I’ll always love you a lot,
Just never forget the big Sister you’ve got.
