Brother

The family mechanic, a gear-head at heart
It’s his creative outlet, his style of art
He loves to race, he’s fearless of speed
It’s not a want, it’s an actual need
It’s in his blood, it’s in his sole
It feeds his hunger, for absolute control
Stubborn and determined, like most men
He will win an argument, again and again.
He can be so bold, so arrogant and immature
He can be so protective, so honest and unsure
As children we fought, as adults we disagree
Regardless, I know he will be there for me
He is my brother and will be forever
No matter what we have to stick together
