Brothers make me mad

Angry, actually

They're just disappointing

What about all the promises?

What about your promising to be there for me?

I'll stop calling you

When I'm scared

When I need help

For by the time you get around to answering

I will have already battled the dragons

On my own

I truly appreciate your comment. It caused me to think. I suppose I should think of why they don't keep their promises, instead of staying angry. Thanks, again. And best wishes for your little brother!

I can relate to one line in particular, "What about all the promises?" This is my favorite line in the poem because my little brother has Autism, and he promises to do different activities all of the time, but he never lives up to it.
