Brother Can You Spare The Time?

Brother can you spare the time,

To remember me?

When I am in need.

For you were always there

When I needed you most

But now you no longer care.

Brother can you spare the time?

You were my comfort when I was sad

You were my friend when I was alone

You were comedic when I was in need of a laugh.

But now you have real friends

And I’m just not important enough.

Brother can you spare the time,

To remember that you’re a brother of mine?

You’re the only brother I have

At one point you were the only friend that I had.

I looked up to you

And I trusted you

But then you turned your back to me

I’m sure unintentionally,

But still it hurt all the same

For you to forget me just like that

I’m surprised you still know my name.

Brother can you spare the time,

To show that you’re still caring for me?

Like all big brothers should be

Instead of shoving me a side

Like some mere memory

That wasn’t worth keeping

Even from the beginning.

Brother can you spare the time?

Do you still love and care for me,

Like how all brothers should be?

So brother can you spare the time,

To at least remember me?
