Introduction
Fabian is the firstborn
he looks just like his father
- with copper hairlight skin and hazel eyes -
but that’s all borrowed
none of it is o r i g i n a l ;
sometimes he feels like a carbon-copy.
but Fabian is tooquiet,
tooreserved,
nothing like his loud and proud father.
they call him insensitive,
and it’s true that he doesn’t care - -
he doesn’t care about the whispering
or the EXPECTATIONS.
Fabian just wants people to know
that he isn’t his father.
…
Nathan is the second son
he holds himself TALL ,“ he has all of his father’s pride, ”
they say
“but none of his s h a m e.”
he’s the family prodigy
it’s a shame little brown-eyed Nate is
second born ;
he would have made a fine heir, that one.
too bad that title goes to Fabian,
( who doesn’t even want it )
Fabian is the favorite son,
the one that looks justlikeFather.
but Nathan isn’t bitter
he’s a realist ( unlike the others )
he knows he’s going to go far
much farther than Fabian.
…
Natalia is the eldest daughter .
she’s a dreamer
who wants to see the world.
but her heart is too BIG
and she’s too s e n t i m e n t a l.
she could never leave her family
(or maybe she’s just afraid
to grow up (?)).
one day she meets a boy (man?)
with golden hair,
and the world in his grassgreeneyes.
she asks if he can show her
all that he has seen.
he smiles
{ gives her his hand }
and our dear Natalia
finally saw the world.
…
poor little Mias
was the youngest son.
he had barely begun to live
before Death took him.
he didn’t deserve to die ,
but something had to b/r/e/a/k - -
it was only a matteroftime
before Daedarus Cain
s n a p p e d.
…
Sara is Daddy’s little p r i n c e s s .
she’s pretty-much-perfect
( smart & beautiful & tall & kind ).
all the boys
s
w
o
o
n
over her.
( but she doesn’t want any of that.
she would trade it ALL
{ her looks, her brains, her admirers }
just to have her big brother back ) .
…
Extreme freeverse. I've always been fascinated by family dynamics.
