Memories lost, memories found

A whisper of a voice

And it all comes crashing back

But you are still emotionless

The perfect brother

Teal eyes shining so bright

Shining in the spotlight

Jealousy filled your soul

You wanted attention

Just once, that's all

To feel loved

To feel heard

You followed someone

To a dark place

Survival of the fittest

But you could barely survive

You couldn't escape

But you don't care

People noticed you

And you are proud of that

Your family found out

They were heartbroken

But you don't care

They deserved it

But now you are not so sure

They might not deserve it

After all that's happened

You just want rest

Your brother hates you

Your sister won't even look at you

Your parents tried so hard to make things normal

And still, you betrayed them
