Sometimes
I like to watch
my brother.

He's one of the
greatest people
I know.

Even from
a young age
I
wanted to learn from
him.

He would spout out
the most fascinating
facts
like cars zooming by
on a race track
and all I could wonder
is why 
my brain 
isn't a sponge
that never leaks
just like his.

He's one of the
most creative people
I know.

We'll talk
for hours
while
exploring
his imagination
which is so
deep
scuba divers
wouldn't survive
one minute.

He's one of the 
most selfless people
I know.

After sleeping for
only
four hours,
he'll wake up
and talk
to me
because I'm
feeling sad.

He's one of the
most seemingly
calm people
I know.

He deals
with his own
illness,
which is not
a downfall,
but can
sometimes
make his
life
difficult
even though
he has learned
how to buff
his own armour.

Which is
why
sometimes
I like to watch
my brother.

I want 
to learn how
he got
to be one
of the
best people
I know.

My brother and I have always been very close. He's my biggest role model and whenever I want to be a better person, I look up to him.
