His walk has changed since I last saw him
His talk as well as his smell.
He looked freshly shaven,his smile evenly defined and his jaw sharper.

His hair looked different too,the curly mess was held back in a slick corporate man hairdo.
He has replaced tuxedos for knitted turtlenecks and jeans.
He wore converse on his feet and was chewing on bubble gum.

He wore glasses now,from where I stood I couldn't tell if they were prescribed or for fun.
But knowing him,he never did anything for fun..but then again he has changed so much.

He looked nice nevertheless
I would have walked up to him to say hi.
Only he wasn't alone,he was with this doll.
He held the said porcelain doll by her waist and whispered into her ear..
He never did that,he was never one for affection,let alone public display of the said affection.

He looked different yet happy
I guess that's what being in love looks like
I wish I knew what that felt like
To be adored and wanted and loved
But he knew that now and I was happy for him

He deserves the happiness he has now
He deserves the smiles and the giggles
He deserves the world and I hope he gets it.

For he is my brother.
