my built-in best friend

no longer lives next door

he begins his own life

too far to knock between the walls


no longer lives next door

word puns and silly walks go far away

too far to knock between the walls

the house is quiet and


word puns and silly walks go far away

too far to hear my voice call

the house is quiet and

I miss you


The author's comments:

My brother has been at my side all of my life. He left for college earlier this year, and I wanted to try to express what his empty room feels like to me as I pass by it each day.
