Her brothers keeper


No I am not a mother ; But I do have a child

No I have never given birth ; But he has called me mother

Comforting and crying when his life began to get wild

I am my brothers keeper.

 

Yes my mother is here and yes he's loves her so

But I'am the one choosen to tickle his toes

Called upon when life brings him fears

I am my brothers keeper.

 

Taelor please never leave me

You've always been the one to feed me

Life is unthinkable without you around

You are my keeper.
