..the future starts today..

My little brother
is not so little anymore
While he's supposed to be
growing into adulthood
it seems like he's
becoming a child again.
he acts so fucked up
and as hard as i try to teach him
he's not ready to learn just yet.
I feel so powerless.

It's just that-
sometimes I think-
when he meets someone
who falls in love with him
I just hope he won't treat that person
the same way he treats me.
Yeah I'm his big sister
and I love him very much
I just want to teach him what's best
but maybe he needs to find out himself
he doesn't need me anymore.
That's the truth
it's harsh
but it's the truth.

So all I can do
is hope that he's smart enough
to be willing to learn
to love the people who love him
to stop being so self centered
and to live a good
and honest life.
