Array ( [sid] => 46549 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Broken Promises [time] => 2004-05-07 16:06:31 [hometext] => [bodytext] => More than two years later, and I still think about that day you left me
What happened to us? We used to be so close
You were my big brother, you were the one whom I ran to when life was hard
I came to you with everything and anything
We went through so much
Then you got a girlfriend who changed you, two years later you got married
You're 25 now and I haven't talked to you in I don't know how long
It's not supposed to be this way - between a brother and a sister
That day you left, you told me, "don't worry, I'll be around, I promise"
And now look at you, it's like I don't even know you
What happened to us?
I sit here and wonder if you miss me as much as I miss you
Hot tears of pain stream down my face at night
I feel so alone
If only you knew what you put me through
How could you just up and leave me?
Just like that?
You tore my heart into pieces when you didn't keep your promise
And yet I still can't get over how when you see me - you act like you don't even know me
Are you even the same person?
What happened to my loving brother, who was always there for me?
If you see him....will you tell him for me....that I miss him?

that was really sweet, it was like a monologue more than a poem. I liked it a lot! Thanks also for your comment on Judgement Day, it's nice to be appreciated.

If that really happened to you... WAHHH I'M SORRY AND I HOPE YOU MAKE THINGS UP!!!!! Yeah!

This was a really sad poem. You totally put your heart into it. Hopefully your brother will realize how much you love him and show you the same old love in return. It's tragic how even our best friends can change. Keep writing, I enjoyed it.
