life had worked out

there was no resentment
from the others
even though
they had taken
a harder path

they were happy for me
that life had worked out
i was married
settled

they were my brothers
my sister
they looked like me
and i felt guilty
that i had taken
an easier path

my adoptive mum was there
and we all chatted

now i have two families
and i could see
that for each of us
life had worked out
