according to my recollection <br />i remember nothing <br />about you <br />mostly because you <br />were born before me <br />soon diappearing <br />as though the earth <br />swallowed you whole <br />i had six sisters <br />growing up <br />without a brother <br />never knowing you <br />were adopted off <br />being lied to <br />about your existence <br /> <br /> <br />i don't know much <br />about you at all <br />never saw your picture <br />never knew your name <br />for all i know <br />you could be <br />living next door <br />or be any one <br />i might pass by <br />in the street<br /><br />Faith Elizabeth Brigham<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/nothing-8/
