Flames of hate.

You were always,

the favourite son.

I was two,

you were one.

The golden apple of their eye,

Don’t think iv,e never wondered why.

You always take without asking,

and never pay your way.

It must feel nice,

to have no guilt.

But soon,

You,ll have to pay.

The ignorance you,

place on others.

Why are you hating me?,

don’t you know we’re brothers.

Why can’t you let me be?.

But we know,

your time is coming.

 

that your pride is due to fall.

These are the seeds,

you have sown.

How could you have known,

at all?.

I know the truth will come out in the end,

and won’t that be fun?.

When you finally realise to yourself,

that i was always.

Number one.

    What are siblings for.

    There givers and there are takers in society. That even includes in families. It is hard to expect a taker to change. To them, everything is ABOUT them. I have a daughter like that. I love her unconditionally anyway. They do not know the wisdom and the gift of giving, because they only know how to take. In a way they make their own misery, and don’t even realize it. Love him anyway. Good poem. I’m sure many people can relate to it.

    Don’t let anyone’s envy stop you.
