When I was
young
family was everything
cousins, aunts,
uncles, grandparents
who cared
but every year we grow apart
things come between us
we moved away
my brother died
lives changed
ages differences became
barriers
Cousins who played piggy back
got married and grew up
we weren't invited
Some I have never
known
I'm too
young
everyone has grown up
no one tries to stay in touch
my grandparents have gotten
old and angry.
