The poem describes how the person imagines that their sibling, who died in an accident, is still alive and with them. The person enjoys spending time with their imaginary sibling, but also feels some signs that something is not right. The poem suggests that the person will eventually have to face the truth and grieve for their sibling, which will be very hard and painful.
He always hangs out with his sibling
They laugh and play and share their dreams
He thinks he has the best companion
But nothing is as it seems
His sibling died in a tragic accident
A long time ago, when he was young
His brain forgot the painful memory
And created a new one
He lives in a fantasy world
Where his sibling is still alive
He doesn't know the truth
He doesn't want to realize
But sometimes he feels a pang of sadness
A hint of something wrong
He wonders why his sibling never grows up
Why they sing the same old song
He tries to ignore the doubts
He tries to keep the illusion
He thinks he needs his sibling
To cope with his confusion
But one day he will have to face reality
One day he will have to let go
One day he will have to mourn his sibling
And accept what he already knows.
