It was always missing in my life
A gap that was in my growing heart
But my parents were amazing
Could never ask for more loving people
My sister, well that is story is for another day
A brother was absent though
Our family line corrupted
I never believed I would find him
The brother I never had
At a graduation party for another friend
Only that one time dud we neet
From then on we talked all the time
he was there for me and I for him
Some days we would have our differences
But I love him, like a brother
He has been there, right in front of me
That brother who is my friend
Author notes

This is really good and I think you did a great job. From what I have read the two of you get along very well. Your parents are amazing people and so is your sister even if she may not always act like it. Great job!
Some days we would have our differences
But I love him, like a brother
He has been there, right in front of me
That brother who is my friend.
