My brother

+49

It all starts with a joint
or maybe even a gun point.

you do things before you think
but It can all happen In one blink.

you say you get a feeling you can’t explain
but sometime we just end up in pain.

we ask you why you do It
& you say It brings you through It.

It’s a shame to see you throw it all away
when at the begging it was all okay.

I look at your eyes red as an apple
& hope someday we’ll be at your wedding chapel.

I hope you find the good in life
like getting money or finding a wife.

I love you because you’re my brother
but someday I wanna be like my mother.
