why didn't you tell me?

i didn’t really know you not the way a sibling should we grew up side by side but it always felt like miles apart as of late, i noticed your absence a shadow of you fading like a whisper i couldn’t catch but i said nothing i thought you needed space that evening, i walked in and the world split in two there you were silent, still, and cold the weight of it crushed me, because i didn’t see because i didn’t ask now, your ghost lingers in the corners of my mind each memory a question each silence an accusation was it my fault? was there something i missed? i search the past, but all i find is regret i didn’t know you not the way i should have and now, i never will
