He can’t hold back his anger
That part of the family is now dead to him
He can’t stand to even talk on the phone with him
Yet he is part of the family and deep down
He really cares for the lost soul
He says he doesn’t because
His brother said he changed but he never did
His brother said he promised but he lied
His brother is addicted and he almost died
He put on a good show
Making everyone think that he turned away from his bad ways
His nieces finally called him their uncle
He finally felt like part of the family
But one day out
Sweating, craving, trying to hold back
But apparently his family wasn’t enough inspiration for him to give it up
He fell .. Cutting himself from the family
And now
He can’t stand to even talk on the phone with him
Yet he is part of the family and deep down
He really cares for the lost soul
He says he doesn’t because
His brother said he changed but he never did
His brother said he promised but he lied
His brother is addicted and he almost died
A call comes in
This lady is on the other end
Some girl that is living with the uncle and brother
She says
"Something’s gone wrong and he took too much
He is gone ... before he left he wanted me to call you
And tell you that he is sorry and to tell his nieces that he loves them"
Heartbroken he hangs up the phone leaving the girl with no reply
Guilt now kills the man knowing that he should have talk to his brother
Even though he had an addiction
But now he is gone
His cravings put to an end
