Returning home after a long absence is a strange and familiar place Your absence doesn't affect the friction and quarrel they have been together for a long time and you are watching like an outsider You think the unique memories between you and your brother are in his heart and it is nothing He doesn't understand that what he cares about is life now and not the past of a brother who was separated from him for twelve years Mom loves you but no more You feel at a loss because it doesn't belong to you Like the bird that strayed in You said you'd come back often. My sister could come to see you and my brother heard only that you were leaving now and the unwarranted meeting was too long. You couldn't talk. Your mouth was glued. A century is like a long family is so noisy and noisy No one is good at listening They just want to say maybe coming back wasn't a good decision

Announce it in person, and try to give the others and myself one last time, the illusion that I am, until its very end, the master of my life. Let's see how that goes.
