Im here for you Bro

by Amir Riveroll   May 16, 2009


I have swollen to the point where I'm ready to burst,
I become full of questions which later must be drained by force.
Who is the man raised in my home is he my actual brother?
The masked stranger who's my complete opposite, is he an mistaken impostor?
Why aren't you like me bro? What has lead you to be like this?
With all the rehab and counseling you keep on thinking with your fist and fingertips .
A so called "rude boy gone bad" I feel for you bro I really do,
Was it the colored rags or the doses of "goodness" you always keep with you?
It hurts me to see my blood in such situations like this,
I wish to hug you squeeze you and give you a brotherly kiss.
I wish to hold you and pass on my self control to brake down this addiction hard,
But I know the damage is done and you weren't what you now are.
A helpless criminal as a result of the evil floating in your blood,
I pray that one day you will find the right way which is now covered in mud.
I remember when we were young you always looked after me,
Now I'm afraid of leaving you in places where I cant see.
My conscience keeps eating me alive, brother where have you gone?
Im close to breaking down in tears when I must deprive you of the things u beg for so long.
Cut it out brother quit shredding me to pieces with the crocodile tears I hate telling you no,
Buts its something I must do to even if it means becoming your foe.
If It keeps you in my life one more day and it must continue, although it's not fun,
You are my light brother, no matter the dullness to others, you shine as bright as the sun.
No one understands you they can only criticize the emotionally broken man you are,
We both took dad's suicide a little rough, but he's up there looking after us from afar.
Society is nothing but an ignorant child, they keep kicking a man when they are down,
But don't you worry my beloved brother youll always be safe as long as im around.
