Analysis of baby brother



i thought i would never see you again.
i still miss you!
you went away, when i was real young.
tears come, down like failen rain, as i look at other poeple.
i still looking for you in them.
people talk about you, wondering if you ok
and how much thay love you
i see moma dying every day.
i look at your old pictures.
asking my self is it you ,or is it me that i see.
i begin to cry .
because i miss you.
i just want you to know.
i love you.
i wish i could forget you
and i wish i didn't have the chance to know you.
but your still my brother,
 i do, i still miss you .
it been over 37 yrs and i still miss you .
my baby brother.
