A Silvery Lullaby Potion

"
The screams crack, through the silence of the night; 
As this cruel world, gives you this pain to fight; 
I guard you in my arms, I coax the pain; 
Shh Shh Shh, oh please don't cry dear brother; 
I'm here for you, no matter, forever; 
Soothingly whispered, in his hearing aids; 

On life's journey, together we'll embark; 
Please dont make me cry, with you in the dark; 
despite the eighteen year, age separation; 
Shh Shh Shh, oh i know you are teething; 
why should this befall, such a small being; 
Sad you cant hear, my soothing lullaby; 

Clutching you tight, so close i share your pain; 
HEY LIFE!, why should you be such a harsh game; 
Praying for your pain to seep into my skin; 
Our silvery tears, mixing like a potion; 
To forge a bond to last eternity long; 
So dear brother, welcome to this cruel world;
