i have lived more years than you and that will never change
if you want to take my path
i will let you.
but,
never make the mistakes i made.
the world is harsh
and something always has to give
but,
it is okay
for i love what i do.
make sure you give less
make sure your love never fades.
you are the only one i am willing to lose to
but rest assured i will never go easy
because,
i know your worth
and you might be the only person on earth
who is worth
more than me.
title says brothers but this is meant to be gender neutral. inspired by 1. being an eldest sibling 2. watching siblings in motorsports. it's exactly 100 words long which i'm quite proud of.

I'll build a castle in the sky
It's made of clouds, it's soft and light
Up so high, no one can reach it
Up so high, away from you.

Your love is like a candle
Covering me with its dim glow
It flickers, it falters
And one day it will burn out
Your love is like a candle
It is dangerous if mishandled
From afar, it looks beautiful
View it up close, and it will burn
But I only have you, my candle
Without you, my life is dark
The melted wax scars my hands
Yet I will not let go
I cannot let go

— The End —
