Aging Siblings

 

The eldest child has passed away
and left brief silences in the day...
moments of realization, as time
goes on...she’s no longer here;
she has gone.

 

My oldest brother came today
to tell me what to do should he
suddenly pass away. I listened
carefully with an inward sigh,
and only after he’d left did I
begin to cry.
