Dear Little Brother

Dear Little Brother

Dear little brother

I know you’re young,

I know you’re changing,

I know you’ve still got a lot to learn.

But for once in your life

just shut your big fat mouth

and listen.

Dear little brother,

it’s a wild world 

The world’s filled with jerks.

The world’s filled with violence.

The world’s filled with judgment.

Life is a boxing match, 

and your opponent is a WWE mega champion.

Whether you want it or not.

But wait, there’s more.

The world is also filled with kind people.

The world is also filled with kind human acts.

The world is also filled with love.

Why do you think there’s still humans on earth if there isn’t love?

Yeah, it’s confusing.

It makes no sense.

But no matter how bad it gets,

no matter how confusing or messed up it gets,

All I gotta say is:

the next time you get mad at losing in Mario Kart,

remember that it’s just a game.

The next time you’re judged for dorky personality,

remember how much it annoys your sister.

The next time you lose another boxing match

put a band-aid on it by getting back up.

Just keep living, kid.

That’s all that matters.
