"Do not pray for an easy life, pray for the strength to endure a difficult one." - Bruce Lee


My crush had a crush.
That fact didn't bother me,
it was who it was.

Her heavy secret
didn't burden her at all,
but it weighed me down.

She would come over
and I thought it was for me.
But that wasn't it.

I wasn't shocked til
the day it all became clear
it was my brother.
