Dear Brother close your eyes and be mesmerized as I hit you with my rhymes
Dear brother it’s way past the time that you realized that I love you
Dear brother I don’t always say it and I’m so mean, too mean, but I really it mean it, I do
dear brother I shed tears as big as silver dollars because I worry when I go off to college you’ll be relieved.
Dear brother They say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks but this old dog is trying to learn just be patient and teach
teach me to love the way you do unconditionally, without hesitation and fully
swallow me up like the ocean in education, reeducate me to appreciate intellectually the true meaning of love
Love me and show me how to love you back, turned my back on the family but I’m turning around, new face, new attitude, ready at attention to learn how to be your sister and best friend again.
Thought I was too good so I shut doors and turned the other cheek too busy to see that the other cheek should have been turned on them and blood is thicker than water so I was slipping and sliding down the wrong slope since I shoulda been hustling all along with my own folks. Dear brother you see I was confused caught up in a daze of being this and that and my family sense began to fade, I didn’t see in an attempt to gain them I was loosing you,
Loosing a tug a war of myself to the wrong side grab the rope and decide which side is worth more to me, I realize now it’s you
Dear brother don’t turn away, turn back take my hand and help me learn to love true
I don’t want to leave, leave unfinished business, unfinished broken relationships, leave you
Take my hand hold it tight lead me toward the light let me be your friend again
I’m sick and tired of the snipes, cold war fronts, two doors down 8 miles apart, relationshit, s*** just ain’t right I miss you.
dear brother, I wrote this letter because I want us to be friends again so take my hand and teach me how to love, because I miss you
Dear brother I miss you
Grab the reins
I was only 2 when you came and now I'm 18
Growing up fighting tooth and nail hoping once we got to high school it'd change but it never did. You still live in your room one door down, and I in mine, walls separate us but we're eons away. But I've spent too many years awaiting the peace that never came between me and you
Dear brother I've been waiting, standing in a line that never ends
Waiting
for a number that will never be called
waiting
for the love to repair itself,
Waiting
for strands of a relationship broken to reknit themselves back together
Waiting
for us to be friends again because I love you
but it seems like this wait will never end
because we're stuck in a stalemate looking over the trenches
Guns pointed at each other, eyes staring blank, faces grim
I'll put my gun down first
because I love you

I'll walk across the trenches because it's worth the bullet wounds

If I get hit then I'll clutch the wound only to continue my stride towards you because I'm done waiting
I need us to be friends
because
I miss you
Love Tayla
