    Poets are always oldest siblings...Anyone else notice that? I've never heard a poem about someone's older brother or sister but I've heard lots about little brothers in particular. Something about watching a sibling grow up inspires poetry in people I guess.

    I have three brothers, i was meant to have 4 but sadly one passed away in the womb before he ever got to open his eyes. He would have been 16, this poem didn't sound like any of the 3 brothers that live on physically... but sounded like the one who lives on only in my heart, mind and soul. This struck a cord and instantly made me think of him. I have his name tattood on my left arm ''Gabriel'' my mom and dad knew not of his gender or his name, but i just know. Call it a sisters instinct.
