How to save us

How can time change everything so deeply,
in a passive progressive corrosion,
and how can I bring it all back but
without losing the immense I got from it?

You were my person, the one for me.
You understood me to a level that even I
found surprisingly a challenge to match.
You tried hard and I thought us alike.


You got my jokes, you laughed at them.
You heard my ideas and considered them.
I was complex and pleasingly divergent.

You don't listen, you don't see, you don't care.
You get frustrated, stunned when I disagree.
I no longer know how to reach you.

Whole again

Make me whole again,
take back that doubt
you left lurking about
when you blamed us.

Make me whole again,
unsay the words barked
in fluid tempered callous
aimed to this open heart.

Untaint the skies,
from gray threats
of heavy rupture.

Appease the seas,
that hastily shove
ancientest pillars.

To my baby sister - a diffrent new born card

I still don't understand everything.

Mommy says I was made of love,
grown like a little bread bun in her belly.
Daddy says he couldn't wait to meet me,
 that I turned them into a family.

And then, in this day,
the XX of XXXXX of 20xx,
you left the big belly from mommy too.
You are so tiny, only XXcm and XX.Xkg
and you look funny,
but mommy says beauty comes from within
(which in you really smells).

Don't worry, don't cry.
I know you are just a little baby.
I've learned to walk and talk and play
 and now I can help you too.
And we'll be the best of friends forever and ever.

Welcome to our home, <address to visit>.
Welcome to our family, <newborn name>.
Me, mommy (<mother's name and contact>) and daddy (<father's name and contact>)
have been waiting for you.

You will love our godmother <godmother name>
and our godfather <godfather name>.
And expect to meet all our friends soon.

Love, <older sibling name>
(Everybody calls me <older sibling name>,
but you can call me brother.)
