he's another year older

 this year I felt very far from home. There isn't much you can say after so long, but knowing I don't know him anymore and forgetting the small things I once knew made him feel very far away. 

Was it Queen Mary?

Was he in his first or second year when he came home unexpectedly?

I do remember walking past him on his way up the road when he was supposed to be in London. 

My big brother, forever young.
