I miss my brothers

They’re back in college; as with many others

They were packing yesterday; throwing clothes in their bags

As I heard, my heart became filled with sags

Of sadness; having to leave already

Despite being only a few weeks, it has felt like  steady

Months and years

One of my brothers has been with me most of the time

Now, he has to climb

Through a university and adulthood

Without me; though it’s kind of good

In the morning, I hug them

To say goodbye 

I will really miss them

As the days go by

It's pretty cool except for the word sags, I don't think that's a noun.
