#siblingbond
Bound by blood, but pulled apart by chaos.
Our parents, too greedy for worldly pleasures,
Built a house of dysfunction,
Where hatred seeped into the cracks.
We had no guidance.
No proper hand to lead us,
No gentle voice to show us the way.
There was no guidance when we entered the world
Just confusion, just the bitterness they carried.
They raised us to see each other as rivals,
Their own hatred mirrored in our eyes.
But as a child, I didn’t care
I loved my siblings,
With a love so pure, it refused to waver.
No matter the circumstance,
No matter the anger or the blame,
I held them in my heart,
Even as the world built walls between us.
Now, we don’t talk.
The years have made us strangers,
Or so it seems.
But deep down, I know the truth
We were never strangers.
It was the environment,
The greed, the pain, the brokenness,
That turned love into silence.
We grew up in the same storm,
But it swept us in different directions.
Still, I hold the memory of that love,
The way it felt before the world got in the way.
And I wonder,
If beneath the silence,
They remember it too.
