Brother

Somedays I ask my mother

why don't I have an elder brother

someone to protect me

someone to love me

forever.

Somedays I ask my father

why don't I have an elder brother

someone who'll pull my cheeks

someone who'll push me around

like usual.

Somedays I ask my lil brother

why don't we have an elder brother

someone whom we both could look up to

someone whom we both could aspire to be

always.

Yet there are days, when I ask you

what if you really were my brother

someone who'd give up his time

someone who'd give up his life

for me.

Guess I really don't need one

when I have you here by my side

someone to look forward to

someone to give magic hugs to

for life.

Distance doesn't matter, brother

for even though we don't share genes

you'll always be the elder one

I wish I ever had.
