so far away from knowing

How can two souls, born from one mother’s grace, Drift so far apart, find a different place? You chased the wild winds, I walked steady and slow, Paths split like rivers, where’d our closeness go? I defended your wrongs, carried your load, While you carved your trail on a reckless road. Now silence screams where your voice should be, My brother, my heart, do you still think of me? From the same roots, same love in her eyes, We built our dreams under opposite skies. I miss your laughter, your fire, your fight, The bond we held in the dead of the night. This letter’s for you, wherever you roam, You’re still my brother, my heart, my home. I’ll keep the light on, through the years we’re apart, Two paths, one love, forever my start.
